I also tested Daniel's mutter package with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vanvugt/mutter
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

And rebooted the Workspace just in case.

I know Mustafa mentioned he was still able to reproduce the issue. In my case, I wasn't but on the other hand, I can't do the action that would allow me to reproduce it.

When I go to display settings, I don't have an option to change the scale, but I do have the option to enable "Fractional Scaling", but if I enable it, I don't have an apply button to enable it, so this never gets enabled and doesn't get to a situation where I can change/revert the scale to see if I would be able to reproduce the issue or not.
