kwin_x11 and kwin_wayland split, X11 code effectively frozen and will be maintained until Plasma 7 (mail.kde.org)

Just let it die already.

I have been running Plasma 6 on wayland since release with no issues. I even recently switched SDDM to wayland mode because they still default to rootful X (WTF!). If anyone cares to do the same:

$ cat /etc/sddm.conf
[General]
DisplayServer=wayland

I switched this as well and found it solves my SDDM hidpi scaling issues!

This for whatever doesn't work on openSUSE Tumbleweed, last time I checked.

Too bad fractional scaling is still not universally supported. In Firefox it's buggy and disabled by default (and pretty much abandoned), and using default compat mode (when app is rendered at nearest greater integer factor and then downscaled by compositor) has some strange font rendering issues and potentially worse performance (on 4K monitor the resolution Firefox would be rendering itself would be humongous).

Thankfully in my case I can just increase font size and it works much better than with fractional scaling.
