Are you using any electron based apps? I find them to be much blurrier when using fractional scaling versus Xorg so I'm running my monitors at native rather than my preferred scale of 125% (2K 16" and 4K 27" displays).

IIRC, vs code supported some extra arguments (--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform,WaylandWindowDecorations --ozone-platform=wayland) but this didn't work universally across electron applications and caused very noticeable input lag in others such as Discord.

Yes xwayland just renders the application in the original size and scales it leading to a very blurry experience. Using only native apps avoids it so I find it a little hard to knock wayland instead of say electron or X. This is the issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1318
