  The issue

  When in nautilus (gnom file manager), after changing folder mouse cursor jumps to the center of the screen.
  In other file managers (I tried thunar, nemo and pcmanfm), cursor behaves normally (stays at the place after double clicking on the folder).
  Same issue also present in telegram-desktop, when changing chats - cursor jumps to center of the screen. I added video with recorded issue.

This may not related to dotfiles at all, but I never experienced that issue before on my dwm setup, where cursor behaved normally at every app (telegram included). So Im apologizing if it not related, and asking for a direction where I may find help.

i'm experiencing this too, probably a hyprland issue it also happens to chromium when i click on links

I've also found a similar issue on the Hyprland GitHub page: Game: cursor warps to center when it's near screen edges. I will move the issue if I can reproduce it on a clean Arch install.

Does it still happen if you use this?

general { no_cursor_warps = true }

Or that other one from the wiki

cursor { no_warps = true }

Latter one is either new or old, yields an error when i use that.

Yes, it fixed the problem. Even though it disabled warping the cursor to the active window when changing focus with the keyboard. I am happy enough with this solution. Thanks for the help.

It remains unclear tho if nautilus is at fault here or not tho. Could imagine something like nautilus spawning new instances or requesting focus or something on opening a folder, causing the cursor to warp to the window's center. Could also mean there's room for improvement on Hyperland's side regarding the event trigger...

No, since this happens after I update Hyprland and it happens to Chromium too
