SUMMARY after upgrading to kde 6 from kde 5 all apps including kde apps have both text and layouts in general too small both on xorg and wayland, I tried deleting everything ~/.config and ~/.local and reconfiguring scaling and font size, but even restoring the configurations I had previously everything is smaller, it only happens on full hd 16:10 monitors, on my setup with 4k 16:9 monitor I couldn't reproduce. If I increase the font size even more it's even worse because all the layouts get weird. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2
Same here (except that I don't exactly know what kind of monitor I have; it says "Built-in Screen 2560x1440"). Want to add one piece of detail regarding the scaling. The Firefox browser does not seem to understand that. No matter what value I set for Settings -> Display -> Scale, e.g. 80% or 120%, in Firefox all sizes (font, tabs, bars, etc.) get _smaller_ in both cases. All other tested software behave as expected (e.g. Dolphin, LibreOffice). Is that a bug in KDE or Firefox?

I think we have two different bugs, in my case any app both qt and gtk have abnormal sizes, some things are really too small, I think your problem is due to scaling with wayland
Andrew, is this on X11 or Wayland, or both? Do you have an NVIDIA GPU?

Do you have an NVIDIA GPU? i can reproduce on x11 and wayland Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.7.0.6.realtime1-1-rt (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-4570S CPU @ 2.90GHz Memory: 23.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 4600
Thanks. Can you create a new clean user account and see if the issue is still happening there?

Thanks. At this point I think I need a screenshot to see what the issue looks like to you.
