I must take this moment to extol the virtues of vertical mice. I had severe pain in my forearm and wrist. I switched to a vertical mouse and that pain went away immediately.
I personally use a now 8? year old Evoluent vertical mouse.
Tell your friends and family. It's totally unnatural for you to twist your arm to hold a normal flat mouse. The vertical mouse is natural and like shaking someone's hand. Try it right now: Hold your hand out like you're going to shake someone's hand, and then slowly turn your hand to hold a flat mouse. Feel that tension? It's terrible for you.
- Symbiote 6y agoI recently bought an Evoluent vertical mouse. I'm not using it all the time, but one of the best features for a Linux user is the separate middle button. I find mouse-wheel buttons are often stiff, which is uncomfortable when copy-pasting a lot of text using the middle button. The Evoluent has a separate middle button, and a click on the wheel.
- bjoli 6y agoWhy a mouse though? Mx ergo can be tilted to about 45 degrees and you don't even have to do a lot of weird arm movements.
