Right - but why would you run it in server mode under a graphical
environment? Server mode is intended for people running in multi-user
mode behind a webserver - in which case the docs are pretty clear that
the user should manually run setup.py from the command line.
If you're in graphical mode (what we call desktop mode), then there
are no prompts.

I'm not sure why you've got such differences in font size, unless
you've changed your config (the query tool/SQL box font size is
specified in em units in File -> Preferences -> SQL Editor -> Options.
On my retina display, the defaults seem to work nicely. I haven't
heard of anyone else experiencing a mismatch.
The zoom level might be an issue under some OSs. macOS handles it just
fine, but I know on some Windows setups the default is unusably small.
We probably need some code in the runtime to auto-adjust the zoom
level in such cases.

I have no idea what that is, and can't find any reference to either
the IP or domain in the code. I also cannot reproduce it on my
machine.
I wonder if it could be Qt Web Engine loading some plugin you have for
Chrome or something like that?
Can you reproduce it outside of the pgAdmin runtime?
