Ask HN: Best Mouse for programming

Re:Ask HN: Best Mouse for programming by LorenzoLlamas on Sunday October 29, 2017 @06:31PM (#15581872)

I really don't see why anyone, including and especially programmers, use mice these days. That is, assuming you have a great (read: Mac) multi-touch pad. If you are in graphic design or animation/film, maybe a mouse is quite useful (I don't know, but watching others, it seems to have qualities useful to them in those fields).

But once you master your hotkeys and multitouch pad, why lug a mouse around? I haven't used a mouse AT ALL in over 3 years, except when I'm forced to use a Windows machine. And I do mean "forced".

What about the web browser, how do you get around that?

I still use it for various things albeit maybe only 10% of the time.
