Don't use fractional scaling.
Use the closest integer scaling and adjust default font sizes (and if needed other sizes like window title height or panel height).
It's also best if you just don't buy monitors that have dpis that are not close to integer multiples of 96.
- eknkc 5y agoYeah I tried this but I used 1x ui scaling + 1.5x font scaling. It works but then all the buttons and stuff are tiny. Maybe I should try 2x gui scaling and 0.75 font size? Never occured to me that I could go below 1 on the scales, it might work. edit: 2x on wayland is still blurry. 1x + 2x font works but as I said, tiny buttons and stuff. Still, my point is; why the fuck am I dealing with this?
