I'm using chrome on Mac and to me the movement is choppy as well, as described above, like the cursor snaps to points on a grid. I thought it could be my mouse, but maybe not then.

I've seen it mentioned somewhere this is known as TTD - Time To Dick - as the amount of time elapsed between releasing a drawing tool in the open and someone using it to draw a dick.

All images on the site appear broken to me, using Chrome on Mac. Is it a site-issue or a me-issue?

The whole site looks AI generated. Those 3D brains are... smooth.

Really cool tool. One detail: the instructions do not say what selecting tiles or lines do, it doesn't seem to do anything besides highlight the item on the other panel, what is that for?

The worst part of this is the person that doesn't even bother copying the text, rather just screenshot the AI answer and send it. That's the new lowest level of not giving a crap about the question.

The exterior is just a magic mouse! At least those switches in the dashboard are real switches, not touchscreen buttons.

Two-tone doesn't seem to be doing much, regardless of the colors I select. White becomes a light sepia, that's all.

New comment by dnpls in "Mouser: An open source alternative to Logi-Plus mouse software"

dnpls — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 13:08:54 +0000

This is amazing. I like the Logitech mouse + kbd that I have but the Logi apps are crap. At some point (not too long ago) I had to run TWO Logi apps because the newer one didn't have support for my keyboard. Mind you, it's some MX artsy-fartsy with the volume knob, so it's not old hardware. Also the app was awful, the volume knob didn't work right away, then the volume would go up and down some 5 minutes later on its own. I'll gladly get rid of the Logi apps ASAP.

Have you tried Rive? It seems to have a lot of potential for game development.

I came here thinking the same. To me, it looks like Rive is the closest tool with the highest potential to be a Flash replacement.

I have tried just now and it didn't work at all. I can select brushes and colors, but nothing gets applied on that white canvas! Using chrome on Macos.
