Diascover 5.12 on Arch Linux.
My display scale is 1.2 under X11.

See my screenshot. Logo in blue area, ">" in sidebar and icon below "procurando atualizações" look pixelated. 
Apps icons are pixelated too, but I think this is another issue.

Hmm, it almost seems like the Qt::AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps call isn't being picked up, because that's supposed to fix this. I tested it out and this change doesn't fix other examples of the issue, such as the fuzzy arrow icons. Dr Chapatin is right: SVG assets like the arrows and the "No updates available" image shouldn't be fuzzy in HiDPI mode at all. I fixed a similar problem for KInfoCenter recently: https://cgit.kde.org/kinfocenter.git/commit/?id=fdd2fc881157c21fd8a7eb3b8b5b0867b3f24c4e

Though it's probably not the same thing here, since we're already setting Qt::AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps

filter and trash icons

filter and trash icons in "settings" are affected.

Pushed by apol into branch 'master'.

Only multiply the icon size if Qt isn't doing it already

Summary:
This multiplication is redundant with Qt and will introduce awkward
scaling to images and poor rendering.
