#ploopy mouse (https://ploopy.co/mouse/) review 4/10

After getting frustrated at the electronics waste I'm generating by cycling through computer mice every 3-5 years, I decided to grab a kit for the highly repairable #ploopy mouse.

With three months of use, I find it _tolerable_. I'm trying my damnedest to like it, which pains me to say because I would love a truly open mouse.

We're frequently asked why #Ploopy devices aren't wireless. There's a bunch of reasons, which I decided to write out in a blog post. It's not only an explanation of wired vs. wireless, but also a little peak into our engineering process.

I know there are some mods out there that try to improve that, but maybe that's a project for next year. Overall, no regrets.

Nano 2 – Ploopy

Brad Linder Nov 4

Ploopy’s Nano 2 is a minimal trackball mouse with a single button

Ploopy has been making trackball mice and other niche computer input devices for more than six years, including models with classic designs, one of the only decent USB touchpads available for Windows PCs, and some quirky devices like the Ploopy Nano Trackball, which is about as basic as an input device can get.

Now the company has introduced the new Ploopy Nano 2, which brings a better sensor […]

The only one I've come across is #ploopy mouse, but I regret I know nothing beyond what's on their website. I've read good things about their headphones though.
