Which Linux distros have good multi-monitor support for differing DPI, scaling and resolutions? I have 4 27" monitors with 3 resolutions between them: 1080p, 1440p and 4k. Windows handles per monitor scaling correctly (UI elements appear the same size on each monitor). Looking for a Linux distro which can do the same. - Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon supports per monitor scaling, but at such a large performance cost that the system is barely usable. - I haven't found any other distros which claim to support this - My understanding is that Wayland may handle this better than X11, but is not stable and works poorly with many applications, particularly WINE games. - Please don't suggest I buy new monitors :-)
