    I have a mouse with 6 buttons on the side and it’s great for gaming. When I used to play fortnite I had all the building mapped there so I could do all my building with my right thumb and it wouldnt distract my left hand from movement controls

      Get the Logitech G600 and have essentially 24 buttons on the side (12 + a “shift” button to give each of those 12 a different command).

      To be fair, I only use about 6 of those buttons, haha.

        If the software allows it you can have a button that changes between mouse modes with different button mappings. Infinite buttons

          I guess you’d have a mode for entering the name of a mode then. Like vim. A whole mode that’s just navigating your collection of modes.

      It’s certainly great for gaming. I didn’t expect it would make things so much easier on everyday use as well.
