Ok, now stop doing whatever it is that they're doing to the cursor layer that makes it feel like garbage (wlroots is especially bad, KDE less so but not as good as either Xorg or Windows, GNOME too but has other cursor issues so...) and then I'll finally consider daily driving any of this stuff
You gotta do the measurements. It's probably not even that hard, all you need is a USB mouse emulator (any microcontroller with USB peripheral support can do this and there are tons of examples) and a photodiode.
will absolutely do this, the microcontroller and mouse emulation part is solved for me already so I just need to get an appropriate photodiode and... profit
yeah screw that, I'm not piping curl into bash and root bash at that
