Are you using Wayland or X11?

Are you using HighDPI scaling?

If you are using Wayland and fractional scaling this is https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-113574

Comment 3 Noble Hays 2024-03-15 17:00:03 UTC

Sorry, i forgot to paste environment info into the original report. I am on wayland, however i'm not using any scaling in kde settings or falkon. Also falkon's rendering seems way worse than the rest of kde6.
