Describe the bug

Cursor following does not work on linux. Sometimes the cursor does move but it's very very random and only a little bit, i attached a video below. I am on arch using wayland on KDE.

same issue, they said "Linux currently use Electron's capture path, which means the OS cursor cannot always be hidden during recording." so i think is the reason why but idk lmk if this can be fixed

fix(linux): restore cursor follow with linux bounds + hook mouse cache

Let me know if this changes anything

still doesn't look like it is fixed. i am on two monitors, does that change anything? i notice when i move between monitors the cursor moves a little. after submitting this comment i will try on 1 monitor

Still didn't work, but found something very useful. The cursor only moves when my mouse is over the recordly window. See the attached video.
