Hey there, I don't know if any of you noticed something similar recently, but I have noticed my cursors have gone HUGE, like 2x what it should be at least. I think this is related to the affected apps using a beta version of Libadwaita 1.6, but I just wanted to confirm here before I create an issue in the repo. I use 200% scaling, GNOME 45, Fedora 39. Does anybody else have this problem? Thanks!!

How it should look (in Pods, firefox and most other apps)

How it looks in Ptyxis

How it looks in Adwaita Demo (latest update, which bumped the libadwaita version to 1.6)

Yes, i have the same issue. I downgraded the org.gnome.Platform runtime and my cursor is back to normal size.

Thanks for the input, I think this confirms my hypothesis that it is in the newer GNOME apps. The ones ive tested are flatpaks but they are very recent versions or nightly versions, so them having unstable dependencies could be the issue.
