Linux as my daily driver via Steam Deck docked to my 65" tv at 1440p 120hz. The Steam Deck isnt only a handheld gaming console. It's a full Linux machine.

I too am a trackball enthusiast! I have the same mouse even. (Not that there’s that many to choose from) I never seem to spot our kind in the wild!

Nice setup!

We exist! This trackball is one of the most comfortable input devices I've ever used. I love it.

Absolutely agree! It’s especially great for small spaces and I can even use it while walking around if I need to!

My partner thought I was crazy until hw hit 30 and his hand / wrist started showing wear and tear. Now he uses one too!

Glad you could convert your partner to “the way”! I’ve always wondered if it’s less wear and tear or not. I’ve been using mine for decades now (daily…) and I’ve yet to have any problems.

Ploopy have given trackball enthusiasts a lot more choice at least!

First time I’ve heard of ploopy! I’m due to replace my current trackball and this is extremely tempting!
