Remove "Mouse acceleration is on by default" #35

Closed luni3359 closed 2 years ago

luni3359 commented 2 years ago

In the video Linus expresses his concern on how mouse acceleration is turned on by default but mouse acceleration is on by default on Windows 10, probably ever since Windows XP. On Mac OS you can't even turn off mouse acceleration without using a very specific terminal command for it.

This should be removed from the list because changing the default behavior will be detrimental rather than a welcome change.

Turning mouse acceleration off by default will affect the majority of users as most people don't bother changing the defaults.

At the very least please add a note pointing out that there's feature-parity with Windows to not make Linux developers think it's an issue.

I'll remove it, thanks for the feedback
