My lower res, lower DPI display from my old Dell laptop looks much more sharp and crisp than the fancy pants Framework 13 high res display.

    Nothing to do with the hardware. It’s the lack of fractional scaling support and not knowing the workarounds

      It has everything to do with the hardware. This specific piece of hardware is not as compatible as a regular DPI display.

      These problems only exist because of this poor hardware choice on Framework’s part.

        If they go from the resolution they used to native 4k, they waste a lot of battery life. If they go the other way, you have low res. I think they happened to pick within a golden DPI range. Not too high or low.

        On KDE Wayland, I really don’t really see any blurriness issues. I’m not even on KDE 6 yet.

          The irony is that my old “low res” laptop looks sharp and crisp while “high res” looks blurry. My old laptop doesn’t require me to give up my distro of choice (Arch btw), doesn’t require me to give up apps I like, and doesn’t require me to spend days applying workarounds that ultimately don’t even completely solve the problem.

        Just get Windows if you can’t manage the pitfalls of Linux
