I’d like to hear people’s journeys and motivations from people who switched over the last few months, and if there were particular challenges that were faced.

    I have a friend who was trying out endeavor with kde. He uses a trackball mouse, and configuring the acceleration curve has been a nightmare for him. Apparently it’s the wayland compositor’s job to expose the ability to configure libinput, and only certain ones do it (KDE being one of them), but configuration isn’t as straight forward as in windows.

    He was more able to configure it when using X11, but kept hitting a bug when using a custom acceleration curve where the cursor would shoot to the top left of the screen (I think it triggered when moving the cursor while clicking).

    I haven’t looked into it much myself, but it sounds like it has been one of those unfortunate sticking points for him right out of the gate.
