I know its enabled by default. This question is mainly for people who prefer to keep it enabled.
When I was playing with chatgpt he told me this:
When you use mouse acceleration, you have to move your mouse more quickly to cover the same distance on the screen. This can put more strain on your tendons and muscles. Additionally, mouse acceleration can make it difficult to develop muscle memory, which can also increase your risk of RSI.
From what is says it can be harmful.
I know chatgpt is sometimes wrong, but found only one source (Dr. Levi Harrison) that agrees and nothing more.
usually its faster with acceleration. what acceleration does is when u move your mouse quickly it will move the mouse more proportional to how far u moved it. so move your mouse 10cm in 1 second and you get across the whole screen. move it 10cm in 10 seconds and it only moves halfway (pulled the proportions out of my ass but u get the point)
Which I definitely prefer. The chatgpt thing in the OP had me thinking -I- was hallucinating. I’ve always felt it takes less hand movement to move across the screen with acceleration
