Wayland cursr equivalent
(lemm.ee)
This sounds like a DE thing than a Wayland/X thing.
Yeah, X does it too but I have a solution with cursr. That app unfortunately hasn't been ported to Wayland which is why I'm looking for alternative solutions.
But isn't this something you can tweak within your DE configuration? I'm on Gnome and don't have this issue.
I can change the scaling of the smaller display to fix it but then everything is too small. I'm not familiar with any other way to fix it. I've browsed online to no avail as well
Have you confirmed that Wayland has this same issue?
Yes that's the case under GNOME, KDE and sway.
As the other person said, I've tested in Wayland in KDE
I run two different resolution monitors on GNOME and haven't had this issue. My second display also comes and goes from my laptop pretty frequently, and it's been flawless, so I'm not sure where the issue actually lies. If it's in KDE, I'd be looking for a scaling or border setting somewhere to try and figure out the behavior. It may also be that you're extending a control element of some sort (taskbar in GNOME) to the second display, which you'd want to remove.
Changing the scaling either zooms my higher resolution display in too much or zooms the lower resolution display out too much. Maybe the scaling is the only solution though
Maybe you are just dealing with the new Plasma 6.1 feature for multi-monitor setups? It's pretty useful, but I find it annoying too, and thankfully this is KDE, so there's always the possibility to make it your way.
I'm referring to the issue outlined here. Thanks for the link to that problem, I haven't encountered it yet but I haven't played with Wayland/KDE6 all too much yet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
