KDE: Shake the cursor to make it bigger
And for Windows people, there's a PowerToys thing where double clicking control highlights it.
Worth noting that on some setups the cursor can straight up disappear until it's moved. It's not even just that you're dumb and can't see it, it often gets hidden by certain types of content.
This seriously messed me up when I didn't realize it had been added and then tried to crouch in a video game. Thought it was some bizarre feature of the game.
Huh. I don't think it's come up in a game for me, but maybe I just don't use that input enough for those. You can remap it, anyway (including to the mouse shake thing, if that's your bag).
There's a gnome extension for it as well.
Seriously, I was gonna say that this is a software skill issue at this point in computing history.
