• Game Mode for mac + Game Porting tool kit (WWDC 2023)

  Build something like https://linearmouse.app into the OS. Many PC-type mouse and keyboard games, people try them on Mac and get shaken by MacOS's acceleration curve. I don't mind the curve for work related stuff, but in a fullscreen game like Starcraft 2 or something, I want that off. Easy win. Hide it behind this new 'game mode' options screen or something.

• MX Master terribly Issues on Macbook Pro M2

  My advice is to uninstall options+ and instead use a third party software such as BetterMouse ($5, 7 day free trial) / SteerMouse ($20, 30 day free trial) / LinearMouse (free). The lag is happening because of Options+, not the mouse itself. Unfortunately this has been a long-standing issue with Logitech's software. Source: over 1 year ago
