Meanwhile, in macOS…
I use the ctrl button to find it. There’s a setting in windows that activates it. Great for work presentations to highlight where you want people to focus, too
Literally giant magenta cursor now because I’m old and don’t have time for this nonsense anymore.
Tooltips can be hard to read sometimes, but idgaf
The KDE wiggle wiggle is a feature that was enough to convert a friend of mine. Game compatibility? Nah. Win privacy issues? Nah. Giant fucking cursor? Wiggle wiggle, baby.
Can us Gnome plebs get big cursor too? 🥺
Lol, I didn’t know of this feature. It keeps growing and growing!
Another giant cursor enjoyer
When I moved to Bazzite I tough I had broke something
How are you enjoying it? I’m debating between Mint and Bazzite. I’m a lifetime Windows guy that doesn’t want 11 lol
It’s difficult to argue against Mint when your use case is a current windows user who just wants to drop Linux in its place.
I have mint in my desktop and bazzite on the htpc/gaming pc.
If you want to learn to use linux and have a more tradicional pc experience, mint.
If you want gamming, entertainment, and don’t care about learning about your OS, bazzite.
Thanks, appreciate it!
Again not the original person you asked, but I found Bazzite a tad too restrictive - I couldn’t for the life of me get PIA’s VPN client installed (for all of those Linux ISOs on my home server).
Ended up switching to CachyOS, which is also very gaming-focused (and Arch-based, if that matters at all!). It’s a bit more open, allowing you to fiddle (or not) with everything a bit more than Bazzite.
As an aside, my only hang-up is that it sometimes hangs while trying to boot up the GUI (not sure why, hasn’t bothered me too much), and it can’t wake from Sleep - but I’m pretty sure that’s just something misconfigured in the BIOS.
This is valuable because while I’m not obsessed with configurations, I do tend to fiddle a bit.
Not the person you asked, but I’ve been running Bazzite for close to a year now. While my intention was an easy time installing any Linux on a laptop with dGPU, everything just works so nicely that it’s my daily driver at the moment.
The only thing that drove me alomost nuts was installing a TFTP server on console. But once I found out about distrobox that was a solution.I have no idea what that second sentence means, haha. TFTP? Sounds network related but I’m not familiar.
It is! TFTP is a protocol, which I use to install firmware on some of my devices.
That and the wobbly windows.
I quite miss inversed mouse cursors from Windows, so the next best thing I found for KDE Plasma was Hackneyed High Contrast cursors.
Wiggle wiggle. Hmmm…WIGGLE WIGGLE ah there you are.
Thanks KDE
I am pretty sure MacOS does this and that there is a Gnome extension for it as well.
God bless KDE
I kinda wish they hadn’t fixed the bug that made the growth unlimited
That sounds like a feature
Did they, I use kde linux (kde os) and I get tired of wiggling before it stops growing. It gets bigger than my monitor.
Huh maybe they unfixed it? Just tried it and it seems unlimited again
Best feature ever! (5 monitors, constantly “loosing” that damn thing)
Well tighten it
losing*
You don’t need to tighten the thing, you need to find it.
Oh no, a non-native-tongue made a spelling-error on a fucking phone 😁 And I have no idea what you want to tell me. The kde-wiggling is the best thing to find it.
[CTRL]
Oh, there it is!
I, too, use this feature!
I even have my cursor set to be large and neon green and I still manage to lose it.
Are you me?
It’s usually on one of my off monitors.
If the cursor can go on a monitor that’s currently off, there’s something very weird with your configuration.
I’m trying a new system of DM’ing in-person DnD games where I’ve got my laptop plugged in to a TV everyone can see, and my players pass around a wireless KB+M to move their tokens around.
It works well enough, but I have to remember to “give them the cursor back” when I’m done doing things on the laptop screen, otherwise they can’t find it, haha
Download and use mouse without borders, then you get the fuck “extra screen you didn’t know was turned on and is in the other room”
Tiling wm and mouse warping. It’s wherever the hell I want it.
found it, it’s in the top right corner
