My trusty old #MadCatz R.A.T. 6 (no +, it was from before the bankruptcy) died, after 10 years of service. The left button wouldn't hold, making it nearly impossible to move windows. The rubber coating also desintegrated. So, I made good use of my work's equipment budget and ordered a new R.A.T. 8+ .

For those with good memory: I posted a R.A.T. 6+ before, but that one replaced my stolen travel #mouse. That's not the one broken.

Still feel like these are the best #mouses around!

Not kidding about the weirdness. Using the joystick and the shoulder buttons at the same time looks pretty difficult.

Of all #mouses in existence I've long time sworn to #MadCatz mouses. They're my favourites by far, so I was rather sad when they went #bankrupt. They've been back for a while but I only needed a new mouse a month and a half back. So I got the R.A.T. 6+.

After 1,5 month I can say, they're as great as the old ones (I still use an old R.A.T. 6 at another PC and got a R.A.T. 5 as spare, so I've got comparison 😉)

Now all we really need is #Linux #drivers  !

Due to circumstances I needed a new laptop. That means starting over with my stickers 😱. Feels like I'm making a good start 😎🤓.

As more people are getting Steam Decks and other Linux machines with gaming-oriented distributions, I hope peripheral manufacturers start to release Linux software for their keyboards, mouse and headsets.

I shouldn't depend on community software for proprietary hardware, even if these guys rock.
