Users reported an unusually large empty space below the text “What would you like to do with your post?” in the topic composer on mobile (Android A14, Chrome), triggered by clicking the trashcan icon NateDhaliwal. Moin noted the modal size increase was intentional (linked to PR #29309) but agreed the gap looked odd. chapoi confirmed the change was made to avoid tiny modals, especially after complaints about mobile navigation placement, but acknowledged it wasn’t ideal in all cases and promised to investigate. NateDhaliwal expressed appreciation. chapoi later reverted the min-height and restructured the buttons to stack vertically (via PR #29846), noting ongoing work to improve mobile modals. NateDhaliwal praised the updated menu, sharing a screenshot of the improved layout.
As seen in the picture below, there is a large space below the text “What would you like to do with your post?” when clicking the trashcan in the topic composer. Nothing seems to be there, but it this intentional?
I’m on an Android A14, using Chrome.
P.S. The image caption says “a Reddit post” 
I think increasing the modal size was intentional

But I agree that the gap looks odd.
You know what, guys? You’re kinda right. We did it to avoid tiny bottom modals, somewhat because some people complained the new navigation filter on mobile was too far down. But I agree it’s not ideal in many other situations, so I’ll have a look into reverting it or doing something else.
Thanks, looking forward to this!
Reverted the min-height and stacked the buttons instead.

There’s still a lot of work on various modals on mobile, but we’re slowly working our way through them.
