I discovered this by accident, and I’m happy to know others are doing it too.
lmao When they implemented it I first thought this was one of those obscure KDE bugs.
Yeah. It’s one of those things where I’m sure it’s genuinely useful to some people but why on Earth is it on by default?!
Because shaking your cursor to spot it is kind of universal?
Fair. It still should be communicated better though, because it really does feel like a bug when you first encounter it.
MacOS had that feature for a long time, it’s pretty intuitive. I’ve never heard of someone thinking it’s a bug despite MacOS being very mainstream nowadays
We clearly live in different bubbles because this is the first time I’ve seen someone refer to MacOS as “very mainstream”. iOS, sure, but I haven’t seen many Macs out in the wild. It’s certainly not common to the point where people would expect MacOS behaviour as the default.
MacOS has 25% market share for desktop operating systems in the United States. That counts as mainstream to me
I AM NOT ALONE
Is that what that is?! It just randomly started happening and I thought an update screwed up my compositor.
So with that question answered, how the hell do I turn it off, because it’s annoying as hell.
I’m a normal human then! I thought I was the only one doing it, I’m glad to know I was wrong
I love this game. On multi screen it gets so big
I keep forgetting to turn that shit off lol
And here I can’t find how to enable it.
You need to be on Plasma 6.1+.
Then it’s under System Settings → Accessibility → Shake Cursor, although I think it gets enabled by default.
6.1.5, I don’t have it. This post says that the feature is only available for wayland sessions, so that explains it.
