Snapr – Custom cursors for better screen recordings

Hey everyone
One small detail I always found frustrating when recording demos was the cursor.
It s either:
- too small to see
- jittery and distracting
- or just... boring
So I added a custom cursor feature to Snapr.

Now you can:
Use different cursor styles and adjust size
Smooth out cursor movement (no more jitter)
Add motion blur trails
Add click effects for better clarity
The goal wasn t to make it flashy
but to make recordings easier to follow.
Especially for tutorials, product demos, and presentations.
Would love to hear your thoughts:
What makes a good cursor in recordings for you?

Is self-hosting trap for most makers?

I see so many makers spending weekends setting up n8n, OpenClaw, or Postgres on a VPS. They think they're saving money.

But your time isn't free. SSL certs expire. Updates break things. Backups fail. One 3 am debugging session and you've lost any "savings."

Unless you have compliance reasons, just pay for managed hosting. Am I wrong? Tell me why self-hosting is actually worth it for you.
