if I go on my touchpad from bottom left to top right (diagonal) at the middle of the way the cursor stops going diagonally and starts going vertically

I can't seem to reproduce this with the recording. One thing I noticed in the recording is that there are a couple of double-touches (e.g. at time 0.598979). the touchpad goes from one finger to two and quickly back to 0, then one finger again. I wonder if that's one of the triggers for the bug.

Either way, I can't trigger this with this recording, sorry.

I was testing it under loliwm, gave a try on weston-launch and it appears the bug happens to a much lesser extent there. I think it may be a loliwm bug.

Please always test this with libinput's event-gui and event-debug tools to verify whether this is a bug in libinput or the compositor.
If you can't reproduce it with those tools, please close this bug, thanks.

Sorry, I'll pay attention to that on the future.
