It would be cool, if INSTEAD would support wayland somehow. Because on mobile devices on Linux (like Mobian, or pmOS) wayland is the main graphic system and most of cases the scaling of 150%-200% is set for it. And the fonts rendering is awful using X protocol in wayland.

It would be cool to be able play INSTEAD with good fonts and rendering on mobile devices with native Linux on it.

Can you clarify what is the problem? INSTEAD uses SDL2 for gfx, so it can be used with wayland.

X11 applications are very blurry when Wayland scaling is used and on mobile devices it is very noticeable.

What's instead version? Is it appimage or you have compiled it? AppImage version compiled with old SDL w/o wayland support (i think).

It's looks like this problem is known for X11 applications running in wayland. But modern SDL2 should support Wayland backend.

So, try something like: $ SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland ./sdl-instead
