Mouse recommendations
-
I used to look around reddit for product suggestions, reddit sucks and I don't trust the bias anymore due to gorilla marketing.
I figured I could pop the question here, maybe help drive some lemmy traffic!
Any mouse suggestions? Wireless is preferred and the main use case is general desktop. I do play games with it but I play single player rpgs, so it doesn't need competitive specs.
If you know of a mouse that doesn't meet the criteria post it anyway, just add the different use case!
Update:
Ended up getting the Logitech Master mx 3s, been using at work and home. Has 100% held up to the hype. Big fan of the side scroll and the main mouse wheel can go kinda into continuous mode if you flick it harder. It takes a bit of getting used to, but after 3 days it's become very intuitive. I also like the multi device connection ability, great for home/office use. Gaming is also just fine (casual gaming specifically).Cons:
No options+ app for Linux, Solaar flatpak works pretty well but I haven't been able to reprogram the side wheel yet. This one is super superficial and not at all a deal breaker but it bugs me that the dongle doesn't have a storage spot in the mouse. An internal storage spot would make going from work and back better, I've ordered a $10 travel case for it so again it's nbd.Also leaks of a Logitech Master 4 source may indicate a new model release this year. Fingers crossed the new button isn't AI bs.
Logitech Performance MX. I've had for years. Still my favorite mouse.

Personally, I would recommend a tufted titmouse. I know, I know, you think it's actually a mouse, but it's not! It's a BIRD. They're super cute.
I love that this comment ended up being the top comment, lemmy didn't disappoint!

Love the mouse. Hate that it cannot store presets onboard anymore.
The Mx master 2 could.Looking for a new mouse too.
store presents onboard
Yeah this is one of the few gripes I have with it, especially without a Linux app.

I am a big fan of the vertical mouse. Currently using the Logitech Lift and happy with it. I'm sure there are other ones that are great too but this is just what I'm using.
I was strongly considering this, I've toyed with cheap vertical clones but I'm very curious to try the real deal!

logitech trackballs are my favorite
the blue ball model is cheap and will work for a few years
the gray ball model is worth the extra cost and mine have lasted for a few years and don't show any signs of failing like the blue ball models do
I love the alternative suggestion, but I can't with the trackballs lol. I think I have some dyslexic tendencies and switching the muscles for mouse movement just breaks my mind haha!

Logitech tend to be good. I've had a Razer Naga for a few years and it has held up. Corsair let me down.
Naga is the one with a number pad right? I love the mmo mouse style!

Solaar is a Godsend though

Solaar is a Godsend though
It absolutely is, I am pretty impressed with it's functionality! It doesn't have everything options+ does but it has like 90%+ of the functions.

Yes, I can't go without the number pad.
