Yeah I ran Wayland and Steam was working pretty well with it. But when I bought a HiDPI display (1440p), Steam looked like absolute garbage for some reason. Really blurry text and images, and parts of the UI kept flickering or going blank. I don’t know how to solve that. Especially since the only change was in the resolution of the display. Everything else was identical.
That’s the thing, the game looks like crap for me, low-res and blurry. It’s Rocket League.
I just saw that you could maybe disable Steam from using Wayland, and fall back to using X11 instead, when using the flatpak version (which I am). So presumably that would make it use XWayland? But I thought Steam was using that anyway. I don’t freaking know.
Maybe what I actually need to find is how to get HiDPI working for XWayland. 🤷♂️
Weird, I’ve just tried booting up rocket league and it looks fine to me. I’m not using the flatpak, using the nix package
I thought steam always used xwayland as well.
Is it only rocket league that has this problem or everything?
Could be your specific GPU unfortunately I’ve had a few Nvidia issues happen on one GPU but not another under an identical stack, they don’t seem to test their Linux drivers properly

I’m using hidpi and have similar flickering, but it still works and the games look fine so I just ignore it
