Also: maximized GTK windows (eg. Firefox) experience the same problem. Hmm, I can't reproduce it on my 4K monitor. Can I have the output of `qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation`? Created attachment 128840 [details]

I'm not 100% sure but it seems like the aliasing is introduced by the Lanczos filter. Just for context: The Desktop Grid effect uses the Lanczos filter to smooth scaled windows. Still happening in kwin 5.19.5, bumping Version. Created attachment 139999 [details]

I can still reproduce this bug with latest KDE on every computer I have:
- PC with nVidia GeForce 970 - using proprietary nVidia driver (465.31)
- old Acer laptop (Intel GPU + nVidia GeForce GT 520M) - using Intel i915 driver
- new Lenovo laptop (Intel GPU + nVidia GeForce GTX 1650) - using Intel i915 driver (screenshot attached)
This issue still occurs in KWin 5.23.5 (with the new Desktop Grid effect). I pinpointed the exact size of the window for which the issue happens. Maximum size of the window that is displayed properly is 1880 x 1015. Anything above this in either width or height causes the window to be displayed rough. My display size is 1920 x 1080 (FullHD). My panel is on the bottom of the screen, its height is 22px. Git commit 7a4cabf3287e82e7d1d6ba84b8b059ab470f9f42 by Marco Martin. Committed on 06/05/2022 at 10:44. Pushed by mart into branch 'master'. QML version of the Desktop Grid effect Replace completely the old desktop grid effect with a QML version. Aims to feature parity and be a change as transparent as possible for the user.

I have just updated Plasma from 5.24 to 5.25.5 (from backports-extra repository) on my LAPTOP. The effect is the same as on the PC, and this is a clean installation of Kubuntu in my laptop. Every window, even small ones, in Desktop Grid view is now broken (rendered rough). Including Plasma Desktop underneath (the clock widget can be seen scaled badly).
