Shameless plug for the best ergonomic mouse of all time. It's only on that one site named after a dying tropical river tho. :|

I absolutely wouldn't trust anker with a device that plugs into my computer after their subbrand eufy got caught spying on people through the cameras they advertised as storing the footage local only but were uploading them to the cloud and it looks like it's not that different in shape from the logitech lift or mx vertical which you can buy directly from logitech and not on amazon maybe I'm missing something but it just looks like a standard vertical mouse though admittedly pretty cheap

no I just hate punctuation also who uses social media on a computer and not a phone

Punctuation is the difference between helping your uncle, Jack, off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.

Certainly there are other options; however, my positive appraisal very much includes the cost of the product. As well as the longevity of it, as I've been using mine for hours on end, every day for at least six years.

It's not a vertical thumb ball so you're wrong

Bruh, the angle doesn’t have to be that high when it’s stationary.

How long was your adjustment period when you started using that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Zero. I went from growing the factory for a couple of hours at a time to however long my bodily and economic obligations allowed; however, as others have helpfully pointed out, there are better options and I wonder what my experience would have been had I chose otherwise.

*Probably the same, but poorer.

Evoluent invented the vertical mouse and is better than that anker one, imo. Have had both

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Looks good; however, with a price of $132.50 (before shipping) I must say it is decidedly worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Good deal and best of all time are a bit different

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Worst mouse I’ve used in the past decade. I tried it for a while, I preferred going thumb trackball with the MX Ergo
