    Look it’s totally normal for it to curve a little bit okay

      If it curves too much you may have a disorder that can be treated with medicine.

      Posy is the shit. Even Lazy Posy is better than most other channels.

        If that the same one about vacuum fluorescent displays? That’s such a cool video to watch on any OLED display you have.

        Also, found out from that video that my 10 year old Whirlpool oven uses a VFD.

      I thought the narrator sounded familiar. Their videos on displays of different kinds are utterly mesmerizing. What an unreasonably high quality channel.

      I think my favorite part of that is the pair of tiny hands passing that double deuce right back.

      I don’t really like the breeze cursor, it’s just the oxygen one but flattened and it doesn’t look as nice.

        I have to say the “everything flat” was kind of a weird process. I think it looks better than in the old chaotic days. But something in between is best.

          macOS Catalina is probably my favourite OS design, as a Linux user. No unnecessary padding like Big Sur and onwards, not overly flat like many older versions, everything clickable looks clickable, it’s great.

    It’s a design choice! Engelbert & English probably thought real hard about this little “offset”. To bring in more dynamic or something!

      I might try that. Did it take much getting used to? What do you like about it more? Is it hard to “aim” sometimes?

        I’ve had literally no problem with aiming in fact aiming is easier. It took no getting used to whatsoever. I changed it because I was doing a video demonstrating a feature on a touch screen but using a mouse and it seemed closest to the touch tracking while doing a screen recording on a phone. I found I liked it and had no desire to go back.

        I like the symmetry quite a bit as well as how easy it is to identify things I can interact with (black dot inside) vs things that I cannot (black border). I also really dig the thick text cursor. My only complaint is the resize handle is not super obvious. It’s kind of a lemon shape.

      I’m about an hour into giving this circular cursor thing a try, and I think I’m a convert. You think it’d be hard to click on things given the overlap, but the color swap when you’re over an interactable really sells it. Thanks!

    years ago i read that the reason for the lopsidedness of the cursor was because of the old crt monitors. it just looked better having two edges being ‘straight’; one exactly vertical up and down, one exactly horizontal, left to right; as those edges would have no ‘jaggies’

    rotating the pointer straight-up makes it look even more off-kilter.

      Squeezing a square about 1% helps it look more like a square; to appear the same height as a square, a circle must be measurably taller. The two strokes in an X aren’t the same thickness, nor are their parallel edges actually parallel; the vertical stems of a lowercase alphabet are thinner than those of its capitals; the ascender on a d isn’t the same length as the descender on a p, and so on.
