I hate most swag. The only good swag is tiny stuff like a sticker or a carabiner or something. Maybe a shirt. But... I probably don't like your tech enough to wear it.
Stickers are purely decorative, low environmental footprint, and unobtrusive mentally.
Although the permanence of sticking makes them a bit less collectible, and I'd like it something like Velcro patches got popular.
Headphones? No. Absolutely not. I have Anker bluetooth earbuds. I do not want your crap without active noise cancellation risking my hearing if I actually try to use it.
Keychain flashlight? No. I do not want crap to carry around. It's dim and non-rechargable.
Water bottles? Better be self cleaning with UV light and vacuum insulated.
Pens? I rarely use them. When I do it's for less than 30 seconds. Cheap ballpoints can dry up even if not used, so it's not like I want to have a bunch randomly lying around "just in case" that won't work in a month when I actually want one.
I have a pile of at like 6 jackets worn once or never that I got as gifts. Lots of random multitools and crap like that. I. Do. Not. Want. It.
I don't even make much money. If I was making 40k+ a year I would want them even less.
I will not bog down my life with little bits of 20 years outdated low tech junk. Especially not from a tech company.
I can maybe see mugs. But... only because sometimes I'm lazy about washing the dishes, and having more makes it easier to go longer in between....
