### How do I utilize `wp-fractional-scale-v1` since Sway 1.9?
[Fractional scale protocol](https://wayland.app/protocols/fractional-scale-v1)
> This protocol allows a compositor to suggest for surfaces to render at fractional scales.
* recent [versions of Chrome/Chromium/Blink Derivatives](https://www.phoronix.com/news/Chrome-fractional-scale-v1) utilize it automatically
* [recent Firefox versions](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1420259) require `about:config` `widget.wayland.fractional-scale.enabled=true`, which is as of 2024-03 having two bugs.

### No hardware acceleration since Sway 1.10
Typically this results in error messages like these:
```
vulkan: No DRI3 support detected - required for presentation
Note: you can probably enable DRI3 in your Xorg config
```
or
```
DRI3 not available
```
or VA-API fails to initialize.
Sway 1.10 has removed support for the legacy `wl_drm` Wayland protocol, which is still used by Xwayland 23.2.4 and earlier, libva 2.20.0 and earlier, and AMDVLK.
As a workaround, the legacy `wl_drm` Wayland protocol can be re-enabled manually by passing `-Dlegacy-wl-drm` to Sway.
