  Debian 13 + KDE Plasma - Why does the mouse get so huge? HAAAAHAHAHAHA

    My favorite part is that it keeps getting bigger as you continue shaking it, eventually resulting in a big-ass cursor that can’t be contained in one display lol

    …What? I was bored…

    macOS also has this feature under the name “Shake mouse pointer to locate”.

      Yeah I think it been a Mac feature since like 2018, but more newly adopted in KDE. But either way it’s just a help UX idea, and potential aligns with someone’s behavior of just like moving the mouse fast to verify it’s still working

        Apple added it in 2015.

        It was on Linux longer. The focus follows the mouse was another that I would like to see native

      KDE’s is different (and better) in that it seemingly has no cap on the size you can make the cursor. You can get your cursor bigger than your display.

    It’s so well implemented, I sent it to a bunch of my friends saying something like “good accessibility and good design often are the same thing”

      Accessibility causes developers to implement users a choice on design.

      The original intent of css was we’d influence pages with out own design but that never happened.

      Night mode is accessibility lifted to a feature.

    It is also a sexual innuendo.

    Still doesn’t help in finding where your cursor is currently.
    Even worse when running multiple VMs.
    Half a dozen blinking cursors, but only one of them is actually active…
