Built out my ploopy mouse today, it’s been sitting on my shelf for a while. I got the self-assembly kit, had to solder on one through hole component.

So far I’m enjoying the mouse, the right mouse button is a little sticky, but I’m sure with a little readjustment it’ll fall into place.

Every part of this mouse is open source, the hardware files, the PCB, the schematic, the firmware which is QMK. There’s a lot to love here.

I’ve been playing some video games, and so far I enjoy the mouse quite a bit.

If I do have one complaint it would be the central scroll wheel doesn’t have a detent, but that might just take some getting used to

I would love to see a kinesis style pinch mouse like the DXT2.

@pronk@mastodon.social @PKL@mastodon.social Great device, thank you for making it open source.

Note: I ordered their USB cables, just for solidarity, and assuming they found a cable that was very effective for a mouse, the cables I received were very strong, too stiff really to be used for a mouse cable. Luckily I had some very flexible braided USB cables already. So if you’re going to order from them do not order the USB cable
