Do any of you guys now a company that produces quality mice where their firmware is open source and can be flashed/programmed with opens source software?

    Goddamn I hate the internet sometimes. Why have I only heard of the Moddo Mouse now despite several searches the past 2 years!?!? AND IT’S WIRELESS!?!?

    (Edit: Ah, missed the part where you said this just released)

    Anyways, thanks a lot for sharing that. Definitely going to be eyeing this for a new mouse.

    Also, do you know if the PCB supports more than 2 side buttons? I’ve been deperately looking for an option with 4+ side buttons

      Hey, no problem.

      Yes - the depicted side buttons channel into just one of the rear-side pinouts, and even then I think each side can support many more than just two inputs. I believe there are a few examples on the site and repository, but those resources still need to be built out some more.

      I’d recommend reaching out to the designer directly. He’s pretty active in his discord server, though if you’d prefer not to use discord I’d be happy to ask on your behalf if you have a concise idea of what you’d like to do.
