Any recommendations on a decent mouse that is less than R1k?
Current logitech cheapie doesn't scroll decently when connected to a Macbook on a dongle with an external monitor.

I'd love the Logitech MX3 but have to keep costs down as wasn't a planned expense

Let me know if this is against the rules but it seems on topic.

Heard great things but never tried it. I usually stick to Razer, Steel Series and Logitech but depends what you are looking for.

G305 is great otherwise here is a cheap Logitech MX3

I've used a Redragon Phoenix since 2019 and my son is using a Centapharous, they seem to be pretty decent mice for their price.

I'm not expecting to get such a large user base, maybe a few hundred at most and I'm assuming most people here know about ad blockers.

Design the website so that if ads are blocked it won’t work.
I don’t mind ads if it’s a website providing a useful service.

Edit: also you need to first be able to show you are offering a useful service before you can think of starting to charge for it. Launch the site or service, gain traction and then find ways to monitize it, ads are good because you can monitize it from the get go.

As long as ads are not too intrusive. Anything that pops up or if ads takes more than 25% of the screen and I'm out.
MyBB floats between ads blocked and not blocked.

Ublock has ways of getting past sites that block adblockers.

Logitech's aren't all they're purported to be.

Had my 2nd g900 experience the double click issue that requires replacing of switches.

Brilliant mouse otherwise, but to pay so much and still encounter well documented mechanical issues years after being known? Not worth it.

Yep. Loved my g900.
My side buttons also stopped registering every click.
Got a razer basilisk ult on special and enjoying it so far. The battery life is great.

I really miss the awesome scroll wheel of the g900 though.

I bought a Redragon keyboard but really soon the black paint started wearing off. Now both the Z and X buttons have no paint and I have to guess which is which.
