There are only a few mouse models that fulfill my requirements and software support for them is bad even on windows. I’m currently on Razer and Roccat, the software is slow, heavy and convoluted, but it’s the only way to use the devices to their full potential. There’s no way to get the drivers for Linux and that’s a deal breaker for me.
You realize the models you’re running locally had to be trained the same way as the proprietary ones, right?
