Font rendering is not as good as MacOS. Apple can make software decisions around their hardware, while Linux and Windows have to stay generic. I personally think it looks good compared to Windows but ymmv. Fontconfigs between distros might differ. Be sure to properly install windows fonts.

I am actually not completely sure if this is even a wayland thing. Compositors can likely experiment with this in the future if it's not what we want. Personally I think I like the simplicity of it. For displays, I can understand it but I feel like my mac does weird resizing as well, maybe unrelated

I don't know if there's anything inherently bad about fractional scaling to be fair. XWayland applications might look blurry as they're legacy (and KDE handles this really well). Other than that I feel like scaling in Wayland is really good. Enlighten me anyway :)
