Fractional scaling for wayland is broken on a per app basis which feels strictly worse to me than it was before. Libre office currently is broken on wayland and works in x11

Which, because we're talking rendering and GPU and drivers, is incredibly frustrating, because if we're here, it's because the system doesn't have working GPU drivers, at which point, a misconfiguration is a crash and a power cycle and a "hope pstore managed to save something", and the hardware/software cursor settings getting lost somewhere-how.
More like some toolkits have really poor wayland support (cough anything GTK/Gnome cough)
I'm not trying to do it on a per app basis. I mean that some apps work and some don't. I should not be playing with rendering backends per app to get them working. If thats needed its broken.
People keep pushing KDE+Wayland to beginners either through recommendations or preconfigured stuff like bazzite. My experience is that the defaults in such a setup are broken and frustrating.
LibreOffice works for me on wayland lol. I don't know why you would wanna do fractional scaling on a per app basis whenever you got one screen. But, for your libreoffice woes, try using a different backend?
Libreoffice includes support for gtk3, gtk4, Qt6, and other backends: https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/blob/master/vcl/README.m...
Maybe you need to try wayland with an alternative backend?
