Does this block you from using Warp daily?
No
Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)
Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Hi @SubhamSubhasisPatra it's still a bit unstable and we're working on native Wayland support, but you can try running Warp with export WARP_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 in your ~/.zprofile or ~/.bash_profile.
Please see https://docs.warp.dev/help/known-issues#linux-workarounds and let us know if the issue continues.
@SubhamSubhasisPatra did this env var help with your issue? This may be related to Native Wayland support which we are working on #4628
@dannyneira Still the issue is there , I tried the command.
this is the 1080P screen , properly scaled
issue it there in 4k Screen
Sorry about this, full wayland support is not out yet, but thanks for trying/clarifying and letting us know.
I am also facing the same issue. Any update on this after 5 months? Is it QT based UI?
Anyway, I tried this env variable and then started, which fixed the issue. You may need to double click on title bar to resize window.
export WINIT_X11_SCALE_FACTOR=2
warp-terminal
You can set it in your profile or terminal launch script.

This works for me, and to have it work also when I launch Warp from the apps menu in ubuntu( when clicking win key for example), I modified the /usr/share/applications/dev.warp.Warp.desktop file and changed this line:
Exec=warp-terminal %U
to this: Exec=env WINIT_X11_SCALE_FACTOR=1.25 warp-terminal %U
after running this: sudo update-desktop-database
I had to open the app and close it and then open it again to see the scale factor change
One of the main reasons I stopped using warp. mentioned this multiple times to the team... the feature of "not going blind" after more than a year is still being considered.
