Wait, could you explain? So KDE can control scaling at the application level? Because I was able to set the scaling in the actual settings just fine and it worked for the UI and most applications. I just remember a few wouldn’t scale up no matter what I did.

Not at the application level. I thought you were talking about desktop-wide scaling? You can also scale plasma-specific stuff independently, like the icons on the taskbar or whatever.
But inside of an application, it would really depend on what framework the application uses. You might have options if it’s Qt or GTK+ and is built properly (e.g. you could target it with CSS or something), but the application can easily override that, so you may be SOL.
