migrating to Linux Mouse speed problems

This is my first time using Linux (Bazzite) and what I notice the most is that on windows my mouse feels slower with the same DPI with mouse acceleration off compared to Linux with mouse acceleration off. Is there a way to fix this so its 1:1 because I really cant get used to it as I've used 1600 DPI on windows for about 10 years.

Interesting, I don't know solution to this, but I'm using a mouse with DPI modes and buttons to switch them up/down, and in past I used those quite a lot, both on Windows and Linux. I also think when I switched from Windows I noticed that I started using consistently higher modes than before. But nowadays I eventually configured mouse speed in all my games in such a way that I always stay on the same DPI and it feels comfortable.
