I thought of this after a recent bug I found. I use Vivaldi browser and recently it updated. After the update my mouse cursor was not visible when within the browser window. Other programs worked fine. I tried visual studio and steam and epic game store all had my mouse, Vivaldi didn’t.

I closed all instances of Vivaldi via task nanager(was unable to click the x) and restarted it. That fixed the bug and I haven’t been able to replicate so I don’t have anything to submit for a bug report. Just a really strange thing.

What have been your weirdest bugs?

    I recently tried Pop!OS liveUSB without a mouse connected to PC, there were some accessibility issues but one was unrelated to mouse and pretty cursed:

    I chose system language to be something non-latin-based, and ended up with a keyboard layout that can’t input English text. There was no way to change the layout and adding the US layout didn’t work, because system showed that the US layout is already the one and only available. So I couldn’t input commands to set things up but also couldn’t click in the UI to set things up
