- samatman 3y agoThis is what I use, it does the job. Flakes out when I plug in occasionally (5% of the time maybe?) but "ope, scroll wheel is backward, time to power-cycle the extension" isn't a crisis.
- nmussy 3y agoI haven't been using it for this purpose, but Linear Mouse should be able to do the trick: https://linearmouse.app/ https://linearmouse.app/
- dharmab 3y agoCan confirm LinearMouse makes this easy to set up.
- mey 3y agoIf you have a Logitech mouse their software can handle that for you in the Mac. Why this isn't supported natively is beyond me
- ahoka 3y agoMacOS is death by a thousand papercuts to use due to these small things that need an app. Installing those apps cause other problems though.
- dylan604 3y agoThis is something frustrating. When a mouse is connected to a MBP, there is a separate system preference for the mouse and trackpad. However, the natural scrolling switch from each one follows the other, yet the tracking speed is able to be set separately. It is yet another sign of the cluster fuck that Apple's OS teams are
- reactordev 3y agoThis is my biggest gripe with macOS. Natural scrolling is good on a trackpad but is a divide by zero in my brain for the mouse

- square_usual 3y agoAs others have mentioned, there's quite a few options, and I use mos (https://github.com/Caldis/Mos https://github.com/Caldis/Mos) for no particular reason. It does the same things as any of the alternatives, I just found it first and stuck with it since.
