New GUI is blurry on Wayland

#1

Hey there,

I’m running Gnome3+Wayland on Arch Linux. I use fractional scaling, so might be a bit of a fringe audience, but my laptop’s resolution is too high for 100% scale and too low for 200% zoom.

Here’s a screenshot of 2027 and 1116 running side-by-side.

The window appears blurry regardless of whether or not I use the new GPU acceleration. I realize this may be a low priority issue since there probably aren’t many fractional-scaling Wayland users out there, but thought I’d share anyway :grin:.

Due to issues with wayland we’ve changed to prefer xwayland - which has issues with fractional scaling. This can be changed using GDK_BACKEND=wayland.
