minus-squarefuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down10·2 months agoPut the port on the side and your hand is touching it, and gunk from your fingers gets wedged into the port. Plus people would still complain about the cable awkwardly sticking out of the side. There’s no winning, people just want to complain.
minus-squareZapBeebz_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·2 months agoDamn near every other wireless (rechargeable) mouse has the port on the side furthest from you, like where the cord is traditionally connected to the mouse. I’ve never heard of anyone getting gunk wedged in the port there as a common problem.
