They're great but too small. I wish the size was increasable.

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

They look great but I fear i'll never find them

Some round one, I forget the name. I love it.

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.

[-] adarza@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 hours ago

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:

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)

[-] fratermus@piefed.social 4 points 20 hours ago

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. :-)

I'm actually on Windows (please don't murder me), but I use KDE's Oxygen cursors, and have for about 12 years.

Miku Cursor

https://github.com/supermariofps/hatsune-miku-linux-cursors/

When my laptop is in presentation mode, I use this instead:

Dot Cursor

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.

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!

[-] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 18 hours ago

Breeze hacked. Trying to convert my dragon scimmy collection into something usable on Linux tho

[-] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago

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.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

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

[-] OwOarchist@pawb.social 26 points 1 day ago

Volantes.

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.

[-] golden_zealot@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 hours ago

I use the same and for the same reason of wanting it to be tailless.

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 23 hours ago

That actually looks okay

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.

[-] adarza@lemmy.ca 2 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

using capitaine here, from store.kde.org, which does have archive downloads available.

[-] juipeltje@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

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.

[-] flameleaf@lemmy.ml 2 points 18 hours ago

I love how over-engineered phinger is

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.
