Blurry apps come from xwayland compatibility. Firefox and alacritty (or other terminal like wezterm or kitty) have native wayland, with no blurry check Archwiki for example HiDPI. With Spotify, live with it or use spot (gtk client). Hopefully next gnome release incorporate something like plasma, and then ctrl+ native in spotify increase its size.

Do you have a link providing clear info on that? Because I have seen only comments, no serious analysis on security whatsoever...

Well, basque indepence movement involved several deaths, including "civilians", non politics or police related until 2000s, and people react quite pacific always.

Whereas catalan movement is basically pacifist with some roadblocks and protests and some riots. In front, the typical anti riot police, not fun... but kind of expected.

Honestly, I will be not surprised if this case ends in nothing as it is not clear it can hold in court ...

Legacy apps have problems in windows also, I guess in MacOS now basically you are not able to run them, but 3 years ago I remember same issues with old apps, blurry or pixelated...

The main issue is gnome not letting apps to scale themselves, whereas kde has just a toggle for that. So in gnome you have consistent size across monitors (cool) but blurry apps when running in xwayland (horrible)

Xwayland apps (running in legacy xorg) are extremely blurry under fractional scaling, native wayland apps can have worse rendering but not very noticeable.

The easiest way of checking if you have doubts is install xeyes and launch it. if xeyes follows the cursor inside the app you are tesing is in xwayland, if not is pure wayland.

Electron apps have to be configured to use wayland, whereas If you are in Debian check Firefox (ESR) is using wayland or install it through the offical deb repo of mozilla the latest. I think in the archwiki are the envronment variables to check.

And, for 125% maybe is just worth to you to just scale text to 1.20 using gnome-tweaks and leave it at 100% the scaling. It is not fancy, but it works. I have to use 150% so is too obvious/ugly to just scale the fonts....

I think the blurry of XWayland apps won't be solved in this release, there were some news that may be combined with the settings and make Xwayland apps to be able to scale themselves like in KDE, if I understood it correctly

Basically a good 1:1 , nice overview (three fingers up, three fingers down stop), and yes you can configure in gnome (through extension I know...) the three and four fingers gestures. Also, they are as smooth as a Macbook in my experience.

But then you have bad touchpad gestures... 😅

With my x1 nano there is an option for s3, but ai didn't see many problems with s2idle like 5-10% after 8h overnight

What is the battery life/performance compared to a X1 nano for example (similar size but x86)?

There is no snap in pop os unless you installed... Firefox and libreoffice are debs. The problem may be that the pop-desktop package is depends on too many packages, but not snap
