Description

After a system upgrade the resolution of my display suddenly degraded a lot. Fonts used to be much crispier before it, now it’s extremely annoying. I suspect that this is not necessarily a hyprland issue but I lack the expertise to debug this. I would be very glad if someone could help me debug this issue. Here below you can see the packages that I updated (suspect linux-firmware could be the bad actor):
