Yeah, and this only gets worse with bigger monitors. Want to use that 43" TV as Monitor #3? Wigglin' isn't going to help.

Real users give up and start using keyboard shortcuts to move crap around until they find it again.

Or just get a wireless gaming mouse with adjustable DPI, crank it up to 11 billion, and try to catch it doing near lightspeed as it goes through all four monitors at once. The only drawback is that, according to physics, it will likely have experienced time dilation, which means your mouse cursor has aged significantly in the short time it was in flight.

In Windows you can add a pulse effect to the mouse that's triggered by pressing Control. It's under the visibility settings.

My coworkers make fun of me when I share my zoom screen and my cursor is big and bright green. I never lose my mouse cursor though.

The Ctrl key shows where the cursor is, easy.

I just wiggle my mouse like an idiot until the cursor hits my vision, because you know...i'm in control of the input device.

And now you know why it’s called a curser.

Does anyone else move their mouse like a bat out of hell to look for the cursor?

Keyboard Focused Tiling Window Manager Users: 🤷

I use powertoys and have the mouse highlighting tool enable when I shake the cursor back and forth.

Before this tool I also moved it around so I could see it, now it becomes highlighted when I do.

my pc has a glitch right now where the cursor ACTUALLY goes invisible until I move it to the other monitor and back...

The only serious solution.

A coworker showed me how to add the comet tail.

It's hiding in the white space of documents! It's invisible!

It's on the TV that you use as a third monitor that is usually turned off

I switched to a custom black cursor a few years ago (Posy's cursor mono block if anyone's curious) and it's so much easier to find. I also added the ping when I hit control, but that's less useful and a bit distracting in games.

me everytime in bloonstg6 after round 40 or so

I've always appreciated the Mac OS feature that makes the cursor really huge if you wiggle it back and forth for this very reason...

All 3 monitors slightly off brightness, exactly like my monitors regardless of how many times I fiddle with them!

There's always xeyes of course.
