Cursor scaling on Wayland is not there yet
I decided to investigate how different Wayland client implementations behave with cursor scaling across 4 different Wayland compositors at different scale factors to get an overview of the situation. Below are my findings. As you can see, cursor scaling on Wayland is messy, with the reference Wayland compositor implementation Weston performing the worst. If you find my data to be incorrect please provide your findings in the comments.

If you want Wayland, labwc (GitHub link) aims to be very close to openbox, so it should pop in pretty easily. That being said, Weston (Gitlab link) seems like the best implementation of a wayland compositor right now.

How do I manually edit the GUI in Ubuntu or any Linux distro?
Weston is a simple wayland one. Wayland does basically what X11 does, but wayland is the modern one that X's legacy baggage: X11 even printing directly part of it.
