[Pop OS] display scale resetting on reboot - SOLVED

So far the framework (DIY edition) is amazing and I’m having basically no problems running Pop OS out of the box.

I’ve changed Settings>Displays>Scale to be 100% (it defaulted to 200% after install) and then used gnome-tweaks to scale the font up to 1.7 - this results in a perfect font/icon size for my vision.

Every time I reboot, though, the display scaling resets to 200%, which combined with the 1.7 font is almost unusable, of course. If I change it back it persists until next reboot.

Any way to make the setting stop changing back? Thanks!

Turn off “enable HiDPi daemon” (the option underneath scaling) and see if that helps.
