Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear.
When I was using X11 I had things set to fractional scaling because there wasn't good support for multiple monitors with different resolutions (and had it set to 1.5, where one monitor should be 2, and another should be 1, so I split the difference.)
Now on wayland, I have things set correctly, where scaling is set to 2 on a single monitor, and is set to 1 on the other monitor (and the application respects this and can be moved between monitors with the expected behaviour).
I also remember something about fractional scaling not being recommended on wayland (I believe it increases the amount of processing needed to be done by a lot.)
