This is due to the incorrect resolution and scaling being automatically set for that monitor. You could change that in Display settings on your Mac.

What monitor do you have connected and what are the settings? Can you send some screenshots?

You have 1080p res. set, click on "Show all resolutions" and choose 2560 × 1440

I had the same problem on my UltraWide but the scaling was the culprit, so I fixed it with changing that. Hopefully someone else has the answer to this one 🥶
