I saw some articles saying fedora 26 might land with fractional scaling for Hdpi screen. Any news regarding this? if it lands somewhere is there any way to know about it? I'll be very keen to switch back to Linux when my main laptop will have good support for this

Gnome 3 has been dpi independent from day 0, so what are you talking about?

  DPI independent, but requires whole number scaling (1x, 2x, not 1.5x)

    And WINE still won't scale. I'll buy a Chuwi HiDPI laptop for any developer who can make HiDPI on Linux suck less.

Unfortunately it will be a feature of GNOME 3.26 or 3.28, so Fedora 27 or later.

It kinda works. Font scaling in Gnome .24 allows for fractional coefficients, and it works for 98% of cases (I have a single HiDPI display; I have heard it doesn't work as well for multiple displays).
