    Are you a vim junkie? Do you find your wrist is still a bit “cocked” when using mouse in the middle?( its what I was trying to avoid)

      I use Neovim, yes. I’ve actually rotated the trackball about 45° now, feels more natural for the right hand when I shift from the keyboard to it. Needs some adjustments but I think this will be better than with the regular mouse.

        Maybe I’ll try that…the 45 degree as that should help.

        For my work setup I’ve got my laptop in the middle with split KB either side then trackball on far right. I like the laptop screen there since it’s 4k and symtetric (and get access to trackpad for some gestures ) but I think I would rather a trackball there eventually
