That's interesting, I was hoping for some improvements in HiDPI support with the shift to Wayland.

On a Debain sid install I was somehow recently bumped from Gnome3 on X11 toi Gnome3 on wayland. Chromium and Qt apps got broken scaling; I solved it by forcing the session to be Gnome3 on X11.

This is just anecdote of course! I would have liked to dig more into it and figure things out, but honestly I just had too much to do and chose whatever was working for me.

Have you tried again after upgrading to gnome-shell 3.26 (it's only been in Debian unstable for one week)?
Tried right now; QtCreator and chromium are still broken. Curiously, the former is super tiny and the latter huge!
