Bug ID: 449993
Summary: Font and icon rendering in Electron apps (I think?) is
blurry in Plasma only, on WQHD screens
Product: kwin
Version: 5.23.5
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: gustoh...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Pretty much the summary. The "I think?" is because it seems to happen in
web-based apps, I'm not sure what's what but I think it's an electron thing.
This is all happening on my new laptop fedora 35, using wayland.
The reason I'm posting this on the KDE sub tho is because all these apps are
fine on GNOME from my testing, but act up in Plasma.
I think it's something to do with how Plasma handles scaling, since this new
device has a 1440p screen, and I've never had this before on 1080p and 768p
screens, plus when I set the scaling in plasma to 100% nothing is blurred, but
everything is zoomed out so it's not too ideal.
I'd appreciate all the help I could get on this since this device is essential
for work and school.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install any electron-based app, whether through flatpak or the package
manager
2. Open it, in plasma, using wayland
OBSERVED RESULT
The fonts and icons are blurry
EXPECTED RESULT
The fonts and icons are not blurry
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 35, Plasma 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0
