I would love if someone told me why Wayfire properly scales my Wine applications up 2x, whereas GNOME doesn't scale them at all.Yes, I can set GNOME for 2x scaling, and everything scales great, except Wine applications.I switch over to Wayfire, works right away. What's different about how Wayfire does it?

@veronica It looks like Wayland desktops each need to solve the problem of scaling X11 applications by themselves, and each desktop handles it a bit differentlyIn this thread here a user does a good write up on how GNOME and KDE implements xWayland scaling in comparison to Wayfire https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire/issues/2719From the wording of the PR it looks like Wayfire implements compositor side scaling, while GNOME has a separate option for xWayland scaling https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire/pull/2955
