      Definitely. It improved recently (like 2 last versions) and was a big thing when the fractional support was added, since now some software can finally be usable. But I still have too many problems regarding speed, animations, different sizes of things in different places, mouse cursors being wrong, crashes or lock ups sometimes happen, etc.

      But it’s getting there and am really hopeful for next version and how good it could be.

      Really want to finally be able to properly use my external monitor with the laptop monitor also connected at different sizes and fractional settings.

        It’s interesting nowadays. My windows 11 navigation bar on my work computer now crashes 10x as much as plasma Wayland does. Completely reverse of years earlier.

        Along with dozens of other problems like invisibly disabling the microphones so the only way to unmute them is to use the audio troubleshooter, my windows laptop gets more unstable with every update while KDE Wayland gets more stable with every update.

        I don’t get the need for fractional scaling. If you had bought nonsensical hw like a 4k screen in a 15" notebook, just change display resolution and maybe global font size?

          And waste all those pixels? Scaling let’s you keep the sharpness while also getting reasonably sized ui

              I didn’t downvote you

              The way I parsed your earlier comment was that the solution to making a resolution like 4k usable on a laptop was just to lower your resolution. My point is that if instead of lowering your resolution, meaning you’re not utilizing the full potential of your screen, you can instead use UI scaling to make the resolution usable while still benefiting from the higher resolution in terms of sharpness in text, games etc.
