I've been messing with this on and off for a few years now and I still haven't seen support for multiple monitors running at different scaling levels (like running a 4K monitor at 125% alongside a 1080p monitor at 100%). This is a feature I use in Windows on one of my setups. I hope this gets some attention soon. I run Linux on most of my machines but this problem still gets in my way on others.

Plasma on Wayland can do that I'm pretty sure, and if you don't have an Nvidia GPU Wayland is fine nowadays. Hell, even if you have an Nvidia GPU it's mostly fine nowadays.

Okay thanks, I haven't tried Wayland on that machine (which has an Nvidia card) but I'll give it a go! Appreciate the help.

Its very fine with Nvidia too

Then use Wayland, its there, its the default and KDE and Gnome should have each their own solution to this feature so you may compare them.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
