I bought an OG MX518, once, because it’s that good and it’s lasted (plzplzplzdontdie).
I installed Setpoint, once, because it’s that bad.

I use logitech and corsair and razer hardware just fine without the software installed at all. I don't need any of those fancy features except maybe run it once to set the color I want.
I had to resolder the switches on my G Pro Wireless. I absolutely love the mouse but they use pretty much the cheapest Omron switches they can, unless that's changed recently.
Was surprisingly not terrible to take apart and reassemble but you do have to pull off the adhesive-applied low-friction sliders at the bottom, so I would recommend buying replacement ones if you find yourself in that situation. Doesn't help that I also had a $150 mousepad that goes with it that's proprietary to specific Logitech gaming mice.
For what it's worth I only did it because I absolutely love the mouse and setup; I love the design and weight plus the convenience of a low-latency wireless mouse that literally never runs out of battery.
It's crazy to think that Logitech still doesn't sell any USB C dongle for their mice even though there's such a high demand.
Good enough for subs yo
G Hub has gotten better in the past year, imho. It is now merely bad and no longer completely goddamned defective.
The keyboard macro software is basically unusable. Also, my $200+ keyboard only has 5 programable buttons? It’s the 2020’s my dudes. My Razer keyboard from 2010 can remap every key. I was also excited when I heard there was a new version of razers macro software, after suffering through their old one from 10+ years ago for so long. I promptly uninstalled the new one and reinstalled the old one after about 5 minutes. Less functionality and harder to use.
Incredible meme. No notes.
