…and they assume that the pointing device is a mouse.

inspiration: I’m using a trackball with my left hand because of a broken button. The pointer shape doesn’t make sense since i’m not clicking with my right index finger.

    I know they assume right-handedness with the pointer’s orientation, but I dont see how they assume the method of locomotion. Nothing about the cursor itself would matter if you’re using a mouse, a trackball/pad, a controller, etc. 🤨

    I don’t know if Windows still has this, but you used to have a shitton of options for the style of your cursor, including left-handed oriented pointers. And you could also download more. I used to have my hyperlink pointer as a middle finger instead of the default index finger. 😌
