There is the sensitivity which determines how far the pointer moves when you move your mouse slowly and the acceleration curve which determines how far the pointer moves as you move your mouse faster.ДЇor some reason macOS doesn't let you adjust the sensitivity, but only the acceleration curve (That's what the 'Tracking Speed' slider in System Preferences does). There are actually two factors to mouse tracking. Right now I'm still within slightly-tipsy clown range with the current mouse/pad/Mac combo, and I'm trying to avoid going through $100+ mice experiments to see what actually will work the way mice used to work back in the good ol' days.

If there was some way to track or measure what's going on with the mouse, that would be great, because then I could actually see where the problems are happening most often (likely at small movements), and compare that to Windows (if there's a similar program that records that), and maybe find a command or something to calibrate this better. The issue may be the current mouse and mousepad together, but really, when it works better on Windows, I think there's something wrong with macOS' 'smartness' attempts with mouse movement, because the touchpad is far more consistent and accurate (though requires a lot more hand work). I suppose it's not bad, but it's still too often, and more than with Windows, and more than mice in the years past. GlobalPreferences -1` in Terminal, which greatly improved the issue with small movements doing hardly anything and fast movements being way too fast (regardless of settings), however, I'm still having trouble getting accurate small movements, and so am making mistakes irritatingly too often.

My Mac is a MacBook Pro, Catalina 10.15.7 (installed, not upgraded).

I feel like Apple overdoes it at big movements and underdoes it at small movements.

I'm currently using an iHome Bluetooth mouse and the mousepad from my Windows computer, which was fine with my mouse on Windows without any adjustment.ДЇor whatever reason, mice I use on Mac just never have the same kind of accuracy and consistency that I've had on Windows.

If I change them again, the issues become worse. I've adjusted the mouse settings the best I can. I really don't want to try a dozen mice just to find a tolerable one. They've been exactly the opposite, and way worse than my experience with them on Windows.Д¬an somebody explain this? Is Apple intentionally sabotaging mouse usage? I've tried going through the Mouse settings in System Preferences. Typically mice have been more accurate for me than trackpad, which speeds up my work, but not on MacBook. The trackpad is consistent, I can follow it logically, but I want to move away from the trackpad and keyboard to a peripheral mouse and keyboard so I can have two external monitors and a better keyboard. I feel like I'm stumbling drunk through a park. No matter what my settings are for Mouse, it's not precise enough at small movements, but way too sensitive at big movements. The mice are from different manufacturers too, of varying quality. The tracking is so wildly inconsistent, I can't make sense of what Apple is thinking. I've gone through 3 different mice on this MacBook.
