See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sway -- this is just a matter of somehow setting

output "*" scale $YOUR_SCALE_HERE

in Sway. This can either be done in the Sway config we install or by calling

swaymsg -t output '*' scale $YOUR_SCALE_HERE

somewhere in the shepherd process tree.

As a workaround, it is possible to manually add this to your Sway config at /etc/sway/shepherd.conf, but that is currently overwritten by the install scripts.
