Well this was a pleasant surprise - I just updated to Fedora Linux 41 and fractional scaling is available out of the box! Everything looks really crisp, even Electron apps! That's fantastic!! Thank you!

Screenshot of the "Displays" setting page in Fedora 41 with the Scaling dropdown open. It has values from 100% to 275% with increments of 25%

Firefox, Chrome, Signal, Krita, Inkscape... my gosh, I've got so much more *screen* with the new fractional scaling option at 150%! And no fans going off either; it seems efficient and it all looks so crisp! My #Framework laptop feels like a whole new beast!

Also worth noting that turning on font hinting and antialiasing in GNOME Tweaks makes fonts look *chef's kiss* on these fractionally scaled resolutions (if those settings aren't already on for you)
