    What’s wrong with fractional scaling in Firefox? It seems to work fine for me with kwin_wayland. Even if I have different scaling on each monitor, Firefox seems to respect it fine. Some really old software is a bit funky running through xwayland but nothing showstopping.

      For me in Plasma 6.3.2 it has noticably different font rendering compared to 100% scale with increased font size. Text looks thinner than it normally should. It’s probably the consequence of downscaling.

        How are you setting font size? I’m running Plasma 6.3.5 and 150% desktop scale looks identical to 100% with a 150% page zoom in Firefox. Just scaling fonts sounds like it would make everything non-text appear the wrong size.

        I do notice a weird behaviour where Firefox renders at 200% scale when it’s entirely within a display at 100% scale. If it overlaps another display at all then it uses the appropriate scale for each monitor. Maybe that’s a setting somewhere.
