The one with the blinking white block. Except when I'm in insert mode of vim then blinking white line
People downvoting because now they have to customize their cursor and never considered it before lol
I was looking for the obligatory 'I use a tiling WM btw' comment but it seems that everyone is touching grass here
Genuine question why do people do that? What workflow is it better for? I'm sure past a certain learning curve it's good for stuff
some people are more comfortable doing all of their computer actions from the keyboard without reaching for the mouse. tiling WMs tend to make that easier to do at the cost of requiring some learning
I guess I'm satisfied with keyboard shortcuts and Emacs as my super two-handed keyboard weapon. When I have mouse fully disabled there's always annoying moments where I'm like holding my phone or a drink etc in the left. Can definitely see that though
I use Posy's
Eyyyy there are dozens of us! I used to manage IT for a school trust - about 2000 endpoints - and I actually pushed it out to every single one of them. They're more pleasing to my eye, they scale perfectly and are easier to track. I got compliments from art teachers and SEND workers which is about as high a praise as you can imagine.
No mention of Capitaine-cursors so there 👈
Default.

They're great but too small. I wish the size was increasable.
They look great but I fear i'll never find them

Oxygen light
Oxygen green
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:
Some round one, I forget the name. I love it.
Fuck Shit Cunt --
Edit oh whoops cursors oops
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:


(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.
Loving just the stock KDE Breeze theme
posey is epik
Polarnight:

Looks pretty; I might try that one out myself.
catppucin machiato blue
Yep, I'm a catppucin Machiato user too. I must say the whole theme is quite nice.

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.
I'm actually on Windows (please don't murder me), but I use KDE's Oxygen cursors, and have for about 12 years.
Bibata Original Ice at day & Bibata Original Classic at Night
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
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!
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.
banana cursor ftw. banana cursor github page
Do they actually look like stickers in use, or is that just the presentation on the GitHub page?
This fucks!!
I've been using the Pacman cursor for a couple years.
Linux
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.
