What cursors yall use?
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
Catppuccin Mocha Pink
Oxygen green
Oxygen light
Some round one, I forget the name. I love it.
Red alert 3 cursors
On windows 11 you can turn your regular cursor various colors, including green and pink, and I wish KDE could do that. I could edit cursor vectors myself, but I don't wanna. Too lazy. I like colorful cursors because they're easier to find and track, but I don't want those big bloated cutesy cursors.
page through these.. you should find a few different cursor themes that would work for you:
Not yet mentioned:
Polar cursors - long time classic. The download seems to have a wrong extension, correct is .tar.bz2.
I also just noticed Oreo cursors - not sure if I like them yet:
posey is epik
catppucin machiato blue
Loving just the stock KDE Breeze theme
Fuck Shit Cunt --
Edit oh whoops cursors oops
Polarnight:
I'm actually on Windows (please don't murder me), but I use KDE's Oxygen cursors, and have for about 12 years.
(Edit: Fixed image)
For about a week, I had my coworker's face as my cursor. Just because I could. I wanted to see how long it would take people to notice. I share my screen a lot. I was surprised it took that long.
In my early edgy metal phase I used the Sign of the horns as a custom cursor.
Fun fact, in Germany this hand sign is often called Pommesgabel (fries fork)

I was stationed in [the former West] Germany from 1985-1988. Upon arrival we had a week-long quickstart intro to German culture. One of the lessons taught was srsly, don't pick up your fries with your fingers!!! I forgot about that until reading your comment. :-)

When my laptop is in presentation mode, I use this instead:
I'd love to implement my own cursor so I have things like cursor trail, but it's a lot harder than I thought. Something about hardware cursor.
Oh, thats so cute. Got a kasane teto one?
I use this one: 
This is the one I use:

Call me weird, but the cursors are just about the only visual element of my desktop that I don't customize. Boring default X cursors all the way!
banana cursor ftw. banana cursor github page
This fucks!!
I've been using the Pacman cursor for a couple years.
i use bibata modern classic
Bibata Modern Ice here!
After downloading tons of them, and trying them out on various computers over a range of screen sizes and resolutions, and also considering what fits with the vibe of my teeming, I have ended up with Breeze. Pretty basic, but I love it. I have to use Windows at work, and got Breeze on there as well.
default breeze, the black one
EDIT : Downloaded a win 3.1 dark version just for the hell of it , since you prompted me https://store.kde.org/p/999998
Quite fond of it. To the point where I kind of have to use these cursors on any PC I seriously use. Ordinary cursors just look out of place. At the very least, I always want tailless cursors. Seeing a tail on my cursor just feels old-fashioned, vestigial, and cringe to me.
I use the same and for the same reason of wanting it to be tailless.
That actually looks okay
That's interesting, i guess i'm the old fashioned type then cause i'm the reverse of that. Cursors without a tail always look off to me. It's why i never liked things like bibata eventhough it seems to be pretty popular.
This one does not spark joy for me
Phinger Cursors, was using Capitaine Cursors before that but i didn't like that the pre-built binaries were hosted on pling, or atleast i couldn't figure out how to get the actual download url from there for the sake of packaging, and building from source takes so long, so i ended up looking for something that had pre-builts hosted elsewhere.
using capitaine here, from store.kde.org, which does have archive downloads available.
Might have to look into that! As i was looking up capitaine again i found out that there's a fork with some cool colorschemes like gruvbox, which i really like the look of as well.
I love how over-engineered phinger is
Rosé Pine Dawn Cursor https://github.com/rose-pine/cursor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
