BUG: 385992
FIXED-IN: 5.12.3

This is a hack to work around the fact that we're using the wrong UI element for Discover's sidebar (see Bug 390928). We use a Kirigami GlobalDrawer for the sidebar, which is problematic because the GlobalDrawer's width is always a minimum of 360 pixels on the desktop--far too wide for our use case (see Bug 390927).

Replacing the GlobalDrawer with something more appropriate is going to be a lot of work, so until then, let's not torture our users with the humongous sidebar any longer and just force it to be a smaller size for now.

I think this is a vast visual improvement because it returns the focus to the content, rather than the navigation. It makes Discover feel less "fat."

We may want to consider changing the default window size to be less wide if this patch lands, since with a narrower sidebar, the main view doesn't need to be so wide.
