SVG cursor themes is a new feature in Plasma 6.2, which we are really excited about. In this blog post, I would like to provide more background behind what motivated us to add support for them, wha…
Shaking my mouse
“Haha this is so cool, look at it get bigger!”
Continues shaking until the cursor takes up a quarter of my screen
“Dear God what have I done.”
The Breeze one seems to scale smoothly. I noticed because I switched to a different one, but then noticed how it got super pixelated, which made me switch back.

Sounds like you used the system as advertised. If anything I’m disappointed you didn’t go bigger.

in the article it says they did a temporary workaround for the breeze cursor. (shipping 100mb worth of cursor sizes)

They said the workaround was shipping the large cursors in a separate, compressed image format. To avoid specifically that.
ah oopsie, i cant read. (sorry)
