I’m still replacing switches on my stupid Logitech MX (faulty design that’s been going for many years) but once it’s dead for good I will switch over to the Ploopy thumb trackball in a heartbeat.
I really like the look of the Ploopy Classic. I use an Elecom Huge, and I love it. I grew up with a Logitech TrackMan Marble (the old school one, not the ambidextrous one) and I loved it. So the Elecom Huge is like a modern version of that old classic, and it’s great for office and daily use - not so much for gaming though.
I would love to see more movement on an open source mouse. I know there are some options out there but it seems like nothing has really stuck.
With 3d printing and the RP2040, these should be more abundant.
I’m sure it probably comes down to the sensors available, but I’d love for someone like Adafruit to offer options.
The Ploopy is pretty popular.
Oof, no bluetooth. Has to be cabled!
All the promo pictures are cabled. I don’t have a Ploopy myself, but to me they look like they all use a cabled connection.
