#1 problem for me is a combination of issues: - xwayland has no DPI scaling support (or rather, naive blurry pixel upscaling) - jebrains ides have no native Wayland support

Result is a blurry mess of an ide. Once that is resolved, I'll be wholeheartedly aboard the Wayland train.

> jebrains ides have no native Wayland support

I'm not sure about this statement to be honest, but maybe I never cared that much since xwayland works already good on my machines: have you tried with a custom JDK?

I had some issues with sway and Jetbrains back in November, but I fixed those by running them on the latest JDK: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/3007#issuecomment-7245...

Granted that yes, probably it's not Wayland native, but using HiDPI in my case didn't seem to be a problem to be honest

According to their bugtracker[1], there does still seem to be issues, but I hadn't looked in a while, and I'm glad to now see they plan to have it solved by end of the year \o/
