Save your wrists and your time: lose the mouse
- blacksqr 6y agoI've been using a trackball for decades and it made a huge difference for me. I use it with minimal wrist action to save me from the near-crippling wrist pain mice caused me. I also use it with my left hand although I am a righty, to distribute the work better between hands.
- kchow 6y agoI don't think mice were designed with longevity in mind. I also experimented with some different options like ergonomic mice, and if I play FPS games again I might consider the trackball, but as a developer for now I've found no need for a mouse/separate cursor control device at all.
- madhadron 6y agoI went the other direction. After years of keyboard-only navigation, going back to using w3m and links as my primary web browsers in the 1990's, I am a happy user of the mouse and graphical interfaces for lots of my routine interaction.
