In the preferences tab, the About Me Editor and viewer is kinda small. It would be nice if this could be bigger by default or users would have the ability to resize this box.

It’s also weird how the editor box is significantly smaller than the viewer box.

You could implement this on your discourse site with a one line css customization.

Any chance this would ship with discourse in the future?

It is a bit unusual for sites to expect _novellas_ in About Me, so a site specific customization seems more appropriate to me?
