Sway with Wayland has every application render at both 1x and 2x and then has the compositor scale the application.

This sounds like a really attractive idea until you realize that a 1.25x 1080p screen means you’re now rendering everything at 3K resolution, including any and all games.

Additionally compositors often scale directly in sRGB, which means you’re introducing lots of gamma errors.
