I'm using a Logitech MX Master 3, and it comes with the "Logi Options+" to configure the mouse. I'm super frustrated with the cranky and slow app. It updates every other day and crashes often.

The experience is much better when I can configure the mouse with an open-source driver [^0] while using Linux.

I use Logi Options too, but while it's stable for me, it still uses a bafflingly high amount of CPU. But if I don't run Logi Options, then mouse buttons 3+4 stop working :-/

It's been like that for years.

Logitech's hardware is great, so I don't know why they think it's OK to push out such shite software.
