        I’ve heard of keyboard enthusiasts, but not mice. Just trying to understand the qualities of mice where someone wants five or whatever.

          I dual wield trackballs (Home: Adesso T50 on the left, Elecom Huge on the right. At work, Elecom EX-G left handed and ProtoArc EM03), since sometimes I want to lean at a different angle.

      Good shape, not too heavy and preferrably wireless. The XM2we has been my favorite, though I’ve had it for only a couple of days.

    None with the 12 button thumb pad? I was reluctantly convinced to buy one and have never looked back since. MMO mice are the best mice for all gaming.

      Really? I’m far too lazy to customize it, so I just use a Microsoft Intellimouse Pro, and it works really well. Then again, I don’t play competitive MP games, so I don’t need a lot from my mouse. I got annoyed at replacing mice, and this has worked flawlessly for a few years now.

      The only thing I wish it had was horizontal scroll, but every mouse I’ve tried with that sucks in some way. I have an MX Master 3 at work, and I keep hitting it on accident, which does different things depending on the application (e.g. volume in Teams). I have a Logitech Triathlon in my home office, which I honestly prefer, but the horizontal scroll isn’t smooth so looking at spreadsheets kinda sucks. But I absolutely like the thumb button way better than the MX Master (work computer is a Mac, and it’s way nice for switching desktops and whatnot).

      But for my personal computer (Linux), nothing annoys me less than the Intellimouse. I prefer wired on my desktop, otherwise I’d probably get another Triathlon for it.

      My keyboard doesn’t have a numpad, but my mouse does. It’s super convenient for typing in verification codes while one hand is holding my phone to read the number.

    I only have one plugged in right now, but I have an Intellimouse Pro, a Zowie EC1-C, a Corsair Sabre Pro, a Mionix Naos Pro, a Cooler Master MM720, and my current main which is a Keychron M6.

    If the M6 was longer, then it would probably be my favorite with no contest. Likewise if the Intellimouse was lighter with a better cable that would probably be my main
