I use Linux and MacOS. The scaling tools on Linux are the absolute worst. I have a 15 inch 1080p laptop plugged to a 24 inch display and this is a fucking nightmare to make the two working correctly. Whatever the distribution or the GNU, being Gnome, XFCE, Wayland, Sway. Arch or Debian based…
On the other hand I got a 14 inch MBP connected to 2 UltraFine 24 and an 2560x1080 monitor with absolutely zero issue.
I can adapt every single definition on every single screen, and the system remembers the def I set when plugging/unplugging.
MacOS external screen management tools is the best I’ve ever seen.
Your comment shows that you know absolutely nothing about macOS
My main PC is a 4k and 1080p monitor, running Plasma Wayland. Using 150% scaling and 100% on the other so pretty much the worst combination you can have in terms of monitor jank (mixed scaling together with fractional scaling). Functionality wise it’s completely fine, there are some graphical bugs though. Mixed-DPI scaling used to be impossible on X11 but that’s because it’s old and not designed with that in mind at all. IIRC sway also worked well for me with that setup. What problems did you have?
Multi-monitor on macOS is fine for my purposes too though. I was actually blown away by how well Continuity display works with my iPad.

I think this is the biggest problem with Apple: you’re holding it wrong. Apple cannot be wrong and there can never be any discussion about how to approach a problem, let alone address it. There can’t never be a problem, and that’s what’s wrong with MacOS.
Oh there are some issues with macOS, especially for a long time user like me who’ve witnessed the disappearance of some features for the sake of user friendliness. But the one suggested in that comment? Just plain ignorance.
And to be fair, that’s exactly the problem with the vast majority of Apple haters who just don’t know shit about the subject.
Lol, is that a joke ???

Thank you being an example of the problem I was referring to. Appreciate your help complimenting my point.
