Have you heard about the uninvited AI bloatware that Logitech injected into their Logi Options mouse driver last week? It’s objectively terrible and a resource hog to boot. I suggest switching to BetterMouse, an $8 superior driver with advanced features. Here’s my review

@amerpie Do you know how it compares to LinearMouse?

@amerpie Yeah, I don't really need it myself, as I almost never use mice - I was just curious. 🙂 Also I sometimes recommend Linnear Mouse to people who have mouse issues on Mac, so wondered when I perhaps should recommend this one instead.

@Havn I just got my first Mac desktop in a decade (at work) and decided to use a magic trackpad over the magic mouse. I'm liking it so far. Previously I was using a Logitech MX3 on Windows 10.

@amerpie Yeah, I adore using a trackpad. Usually, when doing basic browsing and computer stuff, I have my left hand on the trackpad and the right on the keyboard.

I have Window management (as detailed here) and opening of programs on the left hand, and a bunch of guestures on the trackpad:

• App Exposé and Mission Control with four fingers up/Down (this isn't from BetterTouchTool, but the rest is)
• Four fingers right = Cmd + T (new tab)
• Four fingers left = Cmd + W (close tab/window)
• Three fingers left/right = Switch tabs (the hotkey it fires is adapted to each program, as they differ)
• Three finger tap = "Middle click" (which usually opens stuff in a new tab. Can also be set as Cmd+Click)
• Three finger click = Cmd+R (refresh)

Going to a mouse is a big downgrade, also when it comes to easy zoom and horizontal scroll. And I just don't like the Magic Mouse, heh. (I do have a mouse around, though - mostly for games. Hence Linnear Mouse.)

@Havn Thank you very much for all the tips!
