I have reported 3 or 4 major bugs so far, haven't reported this one yet. So much shit broke on plasma 6. Not sure if it's just me, but this release is an absolute mess. I don't want to reinstall
I'm still in Plasma 5 so I'm probably completely wrong, but have you set the QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS env var, like on the arch wiki?
I use QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1.5 on my laptop for 150% scaling, which also doesn't seem to automatically scale with KDE's settings.
I have the QT_USE_PLASMA_SCALING=1 set and it's been working no problem. Could if have been removed by the update? But that would also make the menu icons look like shit.
The Arch wiki thing fixed it. Thank you
