### What I’m trying to do

System: arch linux  
Desktop environment: hyprland  
Package: Obsidian 1.4.5-1

Cause Obsidian is run in xwayland session, system wide fractional scaling is blurry. So I set zoom level in Obsidian settings(Appearance-Advanced-Zoom Level), but it will reset on app restart.

[50041](https://forum.obsidian.md/t/zoom-level-resets-on-app-restart/50041) mentioned this issue, but no useful information.

I hope zoom level can be persisted. I don’t know whether it is a bug.

Thanks 😄 !
