[Qgis-user] question on scale bar world map

Dear QGIS Users,
I have been trying to do a world map with a scale bar and found the problem
that needs a global projection, such as Greenwich for instance then the
"scale bar" displayed in the map of the layout is for instance, 0.2 m
in length but visually not consistent at all with the size of the
continents and distances of the world map displayed.

How could a world map with a scale bar be produced such that the scale bar
length and size look consistent with the length and size of a world map in
QGIS?

Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,

Gabriel
