For the record, Razer is garbage regardless of the state of Linux drivers.

Razer devices feel amazing for about the first month, assuming you don't use their software. After that honeymoon period, they gradually get worse.

If you use their software it's trash from day 1. OpenRazer at least saves you that headache.

I've found their mice pretty great tbh

Except they're 3x the price of a noname Chinese brand with the exact same or better build quality.

I get the Razer hate but I don't think I agree, the 2 mice I've had have been very high quality. Logitech is the one I find gets broken very easily

[–] MotoAsh@piefed.social 1 points 2 months ago

Oh Logitech definitely sucks, too.

It's a shame, I really appreciate their Linux support but I only read bad things about the quality of the hardware.
