I like my Breeze-hacked cursor but I think it’s time to find a native Wayland replacement.

I have some problems with X11 cursors and that’s quite normal with Wayland obviously. For example, my cursor can become invisible if my screen sleeps. Additional controllers that control mouse cursor don’t control X11 cursor, however they still work, I just don’t know where the cursor is unless it highlights something. Things like this.

It’s becoming kinda inconvenient so I’m asking for a replacement. Currently I don’t really care how it looks.

I’m on River by the way.

    Cursor is not really anything that I feel a need to customize. It’s a pointer that changes shape according to context, and the default implementations usually do it at least decently.

      Sure, but my post isn’t about customizing really. It’s about Xorg vs Wayland cursors, which I don’t know any Wayland cursor I can use.

        Is the normal Breeze cursor not an option?

        I’m also not quite sure what you mean with “Wayland cursor”, but I’m using the default Breeze cursor under Wayland without problems…
