#112fwiw Ive been using mouseless for a while now and I've been enjoying it! I like how i can remember the regions on the screen and the hotkeys are consistent. I also like that it makes the whole screen clickable not just what the app is able to recognize as a button.

just in case you didnt know, theres a kb shortcut to switch the overlay to the next/previous monitor.

#114I prefer ShortCat's model: https://shortcat.app/ Similar to Vimium, but for the whole OS. Apparently Homerow is similar, judging from comments I'm seeing here. I really wish I knew an equivalent for Linux. I might even leave Gnome behind if a different DE has a good model for this.
This is purrrfect ;)
I've been looking for something like this

#115For a total opposite tool, there is mousemux (Windows only). You can get multiple mice on the same machine and you can attach a keyboard to each and lock it to a window or a screen.
Whoa! Now that's interesting! I wonder if that would be possible on other OSes...

I couldn't care less how ugly my keyboard is.
Sure, but normal people care about aesthetics, and unsurprisingly big corporations cater to that.
So Lenovo puts trackpoints on their ThinkPads, which is ugly. Also, big corporations cater to aesthetics. Which is it?

#117Anyone interested in this should really try out Homerow ( https://www.homerow.app ) (not affiliated, just a happy user for years now)
How do you handle apps that don't have great accessibility support?
Hell - after installing, it shows a slider to help adjust the label size of each element - but I can't slide it because (surprise) Homerow doesn't support horizontal slider elements like this.
I also can't highlight text on the screen etc.
Struggling to find a usecase for Homerow that isn't just navigating chrome or my filesystem.

#118Wow, this brings back the memories of a Byte (I think it was Byte) article about how a person used this strange thing (don't know if it was called "mouse" yet) to keep on working after his keyboard died.
I've been using a "hamster" for some time now. Its top surface is a track pad - nice.

RIP my hand by RSI
A few months ago I switched to a vertical mouse and can’t recommend it enough.
I recently tried it but my muscle memory just refused to cope. I used to do a lot of competitve fps gaming and its hard to imagine a different way to hold a house. I do use a kineses ergonomic keyboard though but adapting to that felt much more normal than the mouse stuff idk why

I didn't say corporations can't have an ugly laptop lineup.
I'm saying that the trend of consumer/business laptop lineups is to make all of them look similar to a MacBook, because that's what most people want. Of course there will always be exceptions, like the ThinkPad.
