It's a fucking USB HID mouse? OS agnostic. In an ideal world, the buttons should just be really big number scancodes that aren't mapped to anything. You can then do something like this (says sway but runs on basically everything X and Wayland). Research before buying a mouse. Actually, no, just buy it from a local store, and if the buttons aren't functioning as buttons without OEM bullshit, return as defective.
I would argue that BSD licensing keeps projects more free of corporate influence if started by hobbyists.
Corpo forks BSD/Apache/whatever software, doesn't publish source, nerds don't use it and look for the original, the end.
Corpo forks copyleft software, publishes releases on GutHib with literal zip files in the repo semi annually. Original maintainer gets taunted with "but the corpo one has feature X, the code is free, you should use it". If they don't merge it, they get labeled an egoist and people go use the corporate one. If they do merge it, eventually the entire project gets bloated and barely readable, is held together by @redhat.com patches, and eventually all development is just corporate decisions. There's no escape.
You know, we are all victims of it ourselves. I am using Firefox rn. There was little to no "conversion" as they started out corporate. They have patches merged from the Tor people for actual privacy, although removed from the settings because "meh, nobody would want that" (sponsors would disapprove). The privacy they are marketing for normies is a list of like 20 domains.
Yeah uh so we are very private by default, there's no google tracking but if a site loads an ad or a youtube embed there's google tracking, also we block embeds for privacy except specifically youtube.
It's all corporate decisions. While I don't use the specific variant(s) and didn't observe it, I once saw the Firefox home page on someone else's device. It was football stats followed by "sponsored links". I thought it was Edge for a second.
And there's no escape. Web pages are no longer actual pages oftentimes, they are fat blobs of 3 language conversions on top of each other targeting only the specific 3 (sometimes 2) big brand web browsers as the backend: Firefox, Chromium and Apple's Webkit fork. They are all corporate. The fat blob generators are also corporate.
So if a game is only made by one person, it's indie?
The first two examples are clearly made by multiple people. They just haven't registered a company. I good rule I found, not for games but just in general, is that if it's a registered organization it's probably not as good as you think it is otherwise.
