As you can see in the screenshot, due to the standard window design, the widget is too tall to be convenient to use. The widget obscures the browser tabs, forcing you to move the widget from the top of the screen to another place, where it will also sooner or later get in the way.

This is a good idea. Here's a quick mockup of what Korb means.

I provided some mockups of what the widget might look like without a header bar in different configurations. I also added some quick dark-mode mockups just for the heck of it.

Since this header bar is used to move the widget around, removing it would require some sort of custom code to allow dragging anywhere in the window to move the window. But the Coffee Cup icon is also a button, so we would need to make sure the user can't drag the window if clicking on the Coffee Cup.

I am not a programmer, just an artist, so this is just me giving some further detail on the problem for anyone who might want to tackle this.
