This is such a nice fix but then you install it's set it up to launch on start and forget about it. 5 years later the bug has been fixed for 4 and I still have tho script record a random pixel every 10 seconds. Never know how to know that the hacky fix is no longer needed

> when the cursor is near the screen's edges My guess would be that that's Universal Control activating, and the Neo being laggier at handling it than other Macs are. Try disabling it: Displays > Advanced > "Allow your pointer and keyboard to move between any nearby Mac or iPad".
