Yup. I had a very hard time without-pgtk on a HiDPI monitor. Tried all
sorts of scaling and font-sizing. Nothing worked. I am using
xwayland. Because that is now default in Debian desktop environment
(Gnome). So I started using PGTK build. And for my use-case, I have not
faced any issues till now. It has been two months. Fonts look awesome.
