Mouse recommendations, anyone? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Normally I'd go to r/mousereview for this kind of thing, but fuck that website.

Can anybody recommend me a mouse that isn't going to fuck out inside of a couple years? Was previously using an Ironclaw until the USB port went, replaced it with a Basilisk and the scroll on that one's started to jitter up and down now. I have fairly large hands and tend to use knuckle claw grip. Wireless is a must, builtin battery preferred, but requiring a single AA isn't a dealbreaker. I don't mind heavy, prefer a little weight tbh.

I second the G502, although I’m using the older G502 Proteus Spectrum. Using this mouse reliably for 6 years so far and no issues.

Edit: I should add context on how I use my mouse over those years. I use it for both work and gaming. I’ve been playing Overwatch consistently on that, including the remastered version “Battle Pass Simulator: The FOMO Game with guest-star Overwatch 1”. Also various other genres that do require repeated mouse clicking, and this mouse has held up extremely well. Favorite features are weight, ergonomics, infinite scroll wheel, and DPI shift that is a modifier. Nice when I’m trying to click heads in Battle Pass Simulator: The FOMO Game with guest-star Overwatch 1.
