Ultrawide monitor issues with Ventura 13.1

After doing the update to Ventura 13.1, my Asus 38" ultra wide monitor connected to my MacBook Pro via thunderbolt cable does now have the right text scaling. I can barely read any anything without zooming in because the text is small. THIS SOFTWARE FIX NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW IN A SUBSEQUENT UPDATE TO PATCH THIS ISSUE. It is making my computer almost unusable!

Please help in the meantime if possible.

POOR TEXT AND SCALING QUALITY WHEN USING EXTERNAL QHD MONITORS HI , I just bought a Dell U2722DC QHD monitor to use with my MacBook Air 2020 M1, macOS 13.3.1(a). I am using USB-C Apple thunderbolt cable. In setting it uses Default 2560x1440. but the Text Image is Terrible , blurry and not sharp at all. When I use the 1280 x 720 option the Scaling is large text and font , and all apps just scale badly but the Text is much smoother and sharper. I have done some research , and installed BetterDisplay and a few other third party apps, BUT even when using those settings , "HiDPI" the text image is still not that good and sharp/smooth? why is this I understand the whole Apple retina display issue!!!! However what is the point then , when a apple user wants to use an external monitor with a MacBook??????? please advise how to overcome this issue!

macOS Ventura external monitor woes I just upgraded to macOS Ventura and now my external monitor (BenQ PD2700U, 27" 4K monitor) is all screwed up. The resolution is very tiny. The scaling option is no longer in Settings > Display. You can only switch between "1920x1080 (Default)" which looks enormous, unclear, and awful, or this tiny "3840x2160 (low resolution)" that looks clear but is nearly illegible it's so tiny. I've downloaded all kinds of apps trying to fix this to no avail. I never had this problem with the exact setup in Mojave. It seems like it just needs to be able to zoom in a step or two to look normal again. Any suggestions?

Extended Monitor = Blurry Text on M1 Macbook Air There's an old thread that basically says there is no fix for blurry text while using an extended monitor with an M1 Macbook Air. I'm using 2560x1440 Dell Monitors. Tried everything the old thread suggests with no improvement. Would an M1Max Mac Studio work instead?

Try and go to system settings> display to set the right scaling for the display that you're using.

Also, this is an apple users forum, so if you want to provide this directly to apple as feedback, see this link

Thanks Sherlock. I did not think to try that already;)
