Great to hear that multi DPI setups work seamlessly on KDE Plasma. Actually that capability is what brought me to wayland 4 years ago. I switched from i3 to sway, using wdisplays and kanshi to control multi monitor setups... and it was glorious even then.

In 20+ years on Linux I've never been able to make my variety of environments "just work“ this seamlessly on X. It's one of my favorite things about Wayland.

Now that screensharing "just works" I've run out of complaints about wayland, though. Just that it's turned me into an insufferable snob about the blurriness and incompatibility of the X apps I still have to use in xwayland.

But then, I stopped buying NVIDIA more than a decade ago, and linux compatibility is a priority for me in my device selection. So I'm sure there are plenty of other users out there with a less rosy experience than mine.
