    I hope this becomes popular enough that a lot of major distros start adopting it as a default

    Specifically because I want to see turbo-weirdos talk about how higher-quality cursors are “bloat” or “against KISS” for the next 10 years. 💀

      I snorted my coffee reading this. It’s probably more in the inevitably become true category rather than funny category too

        If none of my predictions come true, I made some peeps laugh and that’s enough

        If they do I get to call back to this post and pretend I’m smart (I am not)

        Either way, it’s a net positive.

      Tbh I dont really see how anyone can call this bloat( I use doas btw). Its just so much more space efficient. 4 example I ported capitaine cursors and it takes below 200 kbs of space, its just that much more space efficient

        You are most likely correct from a technical point of view.

        But don’t ever underestimate the potential of weird folks to be – Weird.

        Not that I think it’s per se a bad thing – But I feel like a lot of Linux people are pack bonded to the utilities and tools they have grown used to. Whatever justification they write comes after the fact from an emotional reaction to seeing the thing they are bonded with lose ground.
