Display pixelated/ distorted when zooming... different from normal.

You're probably thinking I'm stupid for saying my screen gets pixelated when I zoom because that is just natural. However, this is a different kind of pixelated. I used to zoom from accessibility settings a lot to help with reading and I just noticed today that my Mac mini's screens get super blocky when I zoom in. Made sure font smoothing was enabled, any suggestions? Seems like a common issue on 12.4

Here's a picture comparing my 2014 mac mini (2x1920x1080 displays) with my old 2010 MacBook (1280x800). Both images zoomed, notice the cursor on my Mac mini as well as the Monterey logo.
