Meh, the only time I’m actually using my mouse for prolonged periods of time is when I’m gaming. And whenever I feel strained I’ll just switch to a controller, I’m absolutely terrible with controllers but they still feel less weird to my brain than trackballs.
For whatever reason I usually get pain in my fingers not wrist. And usually only when gaming for a long time. Pretty sure I move my whole arm when using a mouse. Maybe that’s why?
carpal tunnel and RSIs suck. Trackball use strong arm muscles not weak wrist muscles in strained position.
Plus less pronation.
Seconding as better for RSI. Plus they work anywhere, you don’t need specific surfaces for them
pronation
noun
rotation of the hands and forearms so that the palms face downward
Gotta get one that slopes. Or 3D print a slope for yours.
