My sway config has `output eDP-1 scale 1.25`. I started out with 1.5 liked it but eventually felt text still a little too large. At 1.25 I am finding I need to bump font size up with some sites. I've not seen tearing or any other graphical artifacts in any applications.
I use fusuma for gestures. Had to change BAT0 to BAT1 in waybar config to get the battery to show up. Had to install Intel's WiFi drivers, probably because the Sway edition is on 5.10 kernel. I've upped to 5.14 without any noticeable issues.

At 1.25 I am finding I need to bump font size up with some sites. I've not seen tearing or any other graphical artifacts in any applications. The last time I enabled fractional scaling in Sway, I quit using Sway and Wayland in frustration and moved back to i3. Firefox, and many other applications, just don't behave appropriately when scaling (integer or fractional) is enabled. There are also bugs open on the Sway github issue tracker for this so it's not like this issue is restricted to just me. So it's best to have a laptop which needs either 100% scaling or 200% scaling, nothing in between.
- throwawaycuriou 5y agoSorry to hear that it wasn't working well for you. I'm sure there's a pile of edge cases yet to resolve in Wayland and its compositors. I can only say that for my experience on this very bleeding edge of hardware, kernel, tiling manager, I'm not encountering anything of import. I saw some flicker in tooltips on Bitwarden FF extension's popup window yesterday. I can live with that. Hopefully you'll have a better experience soon.
