@Kai: You can set per-monitor scaling by setting
org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor to zero, and then Wayland
figures out the scaling automatically. But it only works for apps that
support Wayland directly (like nautilus), not for apps that run under
XWayland (like chrome and firefox and most other apps as well), so it's
a bit pointless at the moment. There's some info here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/875832/how-to-set-per-monitor-scaling-
on-wayland

The page https://wiki.gnome.org/HowDoI/HiDpi talks about HiDPI support
via the org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings overrides setting. I
think it says Wayland detects monitors above a certain resolution as
HiDPI and applies the override scaling factor you set (eg of 2) just to
those monitors, but I haven't tried it. (My guess is it also doesn't
work with XWayland apps). And
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=221742 discusses issues when
trying to use this setting.
