Chaotic good here. They have different DPI too so you're never quite sure where your mouse is going to end up.
OK, calm down Satan....
You can use a software called LittleBigMouse to make this better. It's really nice in my experience with 2 1080p screens and one 4k. All roughly the same size
I spend hours aligning their bottoms and virtual position so now my three screens transfer the mouse exactly in their vertical middle.
I also use a tiling WM with tons of workspaces and if I switch workspaces my mouse gets reseted into the middle of the workspace anyway.
I switched to Wayland and it makes a huge difference. Pulling a window over to my higher dpi monitor makes it go ... clearer. It looks just like how you'd want it to look.
I like it so much I refuse to accept my status as chaotic good and want an exception for chaotic good wayland users with correct dpi compensation to be categorized as chaotic neutrals and lawfuls
Chaotic good (3 displays) here
My old monitor is not going to waste :)
So, uh, I have no idea if my chaotic good monitors have different dpi. I guess I'm just used to it lol
