Bug Description
Affects Ubuntu 22.04 x86-64 with Cinnamon 5.27 on Live USB.
Tried to test Ubuntu Cinnamon to see if it would work for my accessibility needs. It was painfully inaccessible.
To reproduce:
1. Prepare for migraine + motion sickness.
2. Start Ubuntu Cinnamon from Live USB.
3. Open main menu. There is a painful blinding cursor.
4. Try to find the "Accessibility" options. These do not include any optins to stop the flashing and animation.
5. Try to find the "Effects" options. These list several types of animation. Turn all of these off.
6. Open "Themes". Switch panes. That is animated.
7. Open LibreOffice Writer to see if turning off animation has stopped its painful blinding cursor animation. The cursor is still flashing.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command only once, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:
apport-collect 2024524
When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/ReportingBu gs.
( Please boot an ISO you encountered this issue with, on the hardware on which you encountered this problem and run it there).
Also PLEASE NOTE Ubuntu Cinnamon wasn't an official flavor before 23.04, thus no Ubuntu ISO will exist with Cinnamon for 22.04; so you're likely asking about a REMIX ISO and reporting at the wrong place.
