Images are stretched, not scaled, on narrow browsers

This is what my profile page, as of current writing, looks like on a normal width browser:

Normal-height profile

This is what it looks like once the browser window is sufficiently narrow:

Stretched out profile

I'd have thought that the image should be scaled, rather than oddly stretched.


While the above holds on both mobile portrait and desktop for narrow windows, the website logo at the top of the window scales properly on desktop and is squished on mobile portrait:

We support browser widths down to 360px, which is the smallest common browser width on most modern mobile devices. At that width, I see this:

Even going smaller than that, I can't reproduce what you're seeing here - what's your environment (device, browser, dimensions etc)?

I can reproduce the issue on mobile iOS Chrome and Safari.

Apple claims that my phone has dimensions of 1334x750 pixels. This issue happens for me on my iOS Safari browser, but only in portrait orientation. In Safari (13.0.5) on my Mac, where the pictures in my original post were taken, the images get messed up starting at as wide as ~1,020 pixels, the point at which the window transitions from placing my reputation below my icon to placing it to the side.

Seeing it on iOS/chrome as well. Though it’s fairly modest in my case.
