All ye who have faith in the GNOME maintainers to not put the cart before the horse, be warned and turn back now.

"Blurry text? I can't see it, it must not exist!"
"Fractional scaling? Just get a hidpi pixel-doubled monitor, why are you hurting yourself like that?"
"What's xOrg? We'll just drop support for you if you're not using an incredibly specific range of graphics hardware, that shouldn't be an issue right?"
"After taking a long, hard look at the Linux app scene, we've decided that AppIndicators are bloat and will be unsupported on GNOME (and Wayland, while we're at it)"
"Alternative color schemes and stylesheets are bloat, we're obfuscating the interface for it to make it harder for vision-impaired people to use our DE, as well as generally gimping the people who want to customize their desktop to their liking."
"Snaps are awful, so we're making our own version with more bugs and less features. Introducing Flatpak!"
It's all so tiresome. I've pledged to never write an app in GTK4 because of this asinine behavior, I'll stick with GTK3 until they get their circus act together.
The opening response in that bug report was "That could be described as more blurry, but its not a bug." but unreadable text seems a perfect example of a bug to me.
It's the sprawl of features that leads to those features being poorly implemented.

Really? This issue didn't exist in GTK2 or GTK3. Sounds to me like you're making up excuses without any evidence.
