Just updated my MBP M2 to Sonoma last night. Typing my work notes which I do daily using caps lock entirely and, boom, crazy blue or orange indicators constantly appear that distract me in my typing to no end. WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME IS THAT ABOUT? Apparently, there's no way to remove it. Is it intended to just drive people crazy or is it some kind of subtle conditioning suggesting to us that we don't have a say or option anymore when it comes to using our own computers? Is Apple actively trying to alienate their customer base with something like this being added? It's sure beginning to make me think twice. I CAN TELL YOU THAT!!
Got a tip for us?

I don't see any kind of Orange or Blue indicators when typing with Caps Lock on. Have a screen shot of this?
This is a new feature of Sonoma but you can disable it..

caps lock icon?
At the mentioned Stack overflow thread, a clever user simplified the terminal command, where we can finally disable this "redesigned_text_cursor": 1. Open Terminal. 2. Type the following sudo command: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/UIKit.plist...

When I do this, it asks for a password. Is that my computer password. I typed it in and nothing happened.This is a new feature of Sonoma but you can disable it..
