> Edge/Chromium, Android Studio, Netbeans, Visual Studio Code I think most of those might be Chromium/Electron-based so they will use X11 by default.
In Chrome or Chromium you can fix it by setting this to Wayland: chrome://flags/#ozone-platform-hint For the other apps, I would hope they recognise the command line version: --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland ** Tags added: multimonitor ** Tags added: fractional-scaling ** Summary changed: - Setting scaling makes font rendering bad + Low quality fractional scaling in Xwayland apps ** Package changed: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) => mutter (Ubuntu) ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues #2328 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2328 ** Also affects: mutter via https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2328 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Project changed: gnome-control-center => ubuntu ** No longer affects: ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2097392 Title: Low quality fractional scaling in Xwayland apps Status in Mutter: Unknown Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Very serious UX problem affecting lot (most) of the users, Ubuntu 24.10: On my FullHD notebook, Ubuntu 24.10, Gnome, setting scaling to anything other then 100% has really bad effect on font quality and crispness of the text. Previously, I had scaling set to 125% and fonts looked hazy and wrong. First, I thought it is some font-rendering issue, but then I realized that when I turn off scaling (set to 100%) and enlarge fonts instead in Gnome-tweaks, fonts are about the same size as with scaling, but good looking and crisp! However, scaling is not universally bad for fonts in all applications, in Gnome Control Center (Settings) or System monitor, fonts are crisp, even with scaling. But non-Gnome-system apps I use (Edge/Chromium, Android Studio, Netbeans, Visual Studio Code) all have bad looking fonts with any scaling on, fractional or not. Especially annoying in web browsers. If you render same web page in Windows and Ubuntu, text looks about same quality at 100% (no scaling), but at any other scaling Windows keeps its text rendering quality, while Ubuntu don't. Users experiencing this font-rendering degradation probably have no idea something is wrong, they just see hazy, low-quality fonts on the screen. Problem is less visible on high-dpi screens, and more annoying on FullHD screens or less-dpi TVs.
