a few small issues that are easily overlooked: - arm cuts off where the taskbar should be, in full-screen apps - can't hide the mouse (the actual one, to access the settings, though this is understandable)
otherwise a fantastic app great software that I couldn't wait for the release of give this guy your 3 dollars
mouse, not cursor. the actual lil' mouse thing at the bottom of the screen is what I meant, friend. the cursor is actually essential as otherwise you really wouldn't know what you're pointing at
The whole linux graphics system is moving from X11 to Wayland, and there isn’t any unified way to write a mouse-chasing widget like this one. You can do it in X (but compositing it is a nightmare). Wayland doesn’t tell you where the cursor is if it’s outside your window, and doesn’t have an API to ask. You could probably manage it as a Gnome extension and KDE Plasma thingy(?). The Gnome extension interface just changed out its entire javascript (yeah, fricking javascript) engine, so you have to write this one twice just for one half of the ecosystem. And that doesn’t cover the Steam Deck yet.

the second one can be fixed by using an invisible cursor. Here's a tutorial.

Oooh, I thought you meant you wanted to use the paw as the cursor. I forgot the literal mouse icon.
