 @cad8c0ef heck, if you want something that a reputable brand you knew from back in the day doesn't make anymore, well... GOOD LUCK.

 @27823c36 @cad8c0ef Hell, my favorite pair of headphones/microphone still exists, but the company was purchased by HP and the same exact model is now not worth purchasrng

 @c61e5f87 @cad8c0ef oh, heck, HP is a GREAT example of enshittification. They used to be reputable. Their printers were *tanks*, they were *standard* in offices and computer labs. Now they're a waste of the materials used to create components, and have been for at least the past decade.

 @27823c36
Or you find the product, but it's a premium price now. So you save up, shell out, then find that cost-cutting measures have left it a shell of its former self.

 @5f94e68c @cad8c0ef not expensive but I saw that with a model of Logitech mouse - same model number, progressively shittier build quality.

 @27823c36 @5f94e68c @cad8c0ef Ugh. It's always Logitech. And they still hold that patent for the spinny wheel thing.

 @97c2a106 @cad8c0ef @5f94e68c Really not a fan of the fact I have to load their bloated-ass app for my current mouse to use the desired DPI. (another symptom of enshittification)
