Emacs29 messes up fonts clarity after switching monitors

I'm running emacs29 built with brew like this:

`brew install libgccjit`

`export CC=gcc`

`brew install emacs-plus@29 --with-native-comp --with-xwidgets --with-
no-frame-refocus --with-modern-pen-icon`

I run it on my Mac with M1 arm cpus. Sometimes on the laptop, and
sometimes connected to an external monitor. After a round or two of
these switches, Emacs fonts start to look ugly, see this pic for the
contrast (the top window is a fresh emacs, while the bottom one has
been through monitor switches).

Has anyone seen the same problem, and more importantly found a
solution for it?

If I had to guess it sounds like a scaling issue with HiDPI.
