... wayland isn't supposed to change font rendering though ? It's just freetype + fontconfig + harfbuzz most of the time and AFAIK they don't operate differently under Wayland or X11 (or even if you build and use them on Win or Mac).
- horsawlarway 5y agoWayland fixing the scaling issues you hit when mixing/matching hi-dpi and standard screens. XWayland apps still have a few issues (or at least did, I've mostly moved over to native wayland everywhere now that chromium supports it) Basically - it's not font related exactly, but it definitely impacts reading text.
