I've got a Thinkpad with a 14" screen at 2256x1504. Running Wayland and SwayWM, I could never get integer or fractional scaling to work just right. In the end, turning off system-wide scaling and configuring apps that don't scale automatically was what did the trick.
- 3np 5y agoHow long ago did you try last? I recently started using Sway and haven't hit any issues yet.
- colordrops 5y agoSorry, I wasn't clear - just mentioning that I'm using Sway, but it's not the problem. The problem was with apps running in XWayland, e.g. Gimp, Firefox, Spotify, Slack, gnome apps, etc
- 3np 5y agoAh, gotcha. The Wayland situation in Firefox has been changing for every major release BTW. Been running it in native Wayland since recently and so far it’s mostly been good and stable. Still the occasional crash or popup glitch but since ~v94 it already feels worth it.
