Public bug reported:
I believe the static feedback cursor with Kubuntu is inconsistent with
almost all other Desktops and OSes. This leads new users to believe the
system is stuck or broken when launching an app.
This is a tiny change that give the feedback I believe customers have
come to expect.
How to recreate
===============
Click on the Firefox Icon in the panel to launch it.
Watch the cursor show a small presentation to the bottom-right of the cursor.
There is no motion within the cursor image itself.
Why should we reconsider
========================
Users are taught from convention that a cursor showing motion when launching an
application or showing other processing is good. Consider the flipping or
spinning hour glass, or the spinning beach ball. When these are moving, the
user is reassured that something is going on. When these stop moving, they are
conditioned that the results are not good. For this reason, it may be worth
reconsidering this default. I believe all other KDE desktops (such as KDE Neon,
and Jammy Ubuntu Studio, etc) also default to this.
