I needed another corded mouse and this time around I thought of @PKL@mastodon.social and @pronk@mastodon.social instead of Logitech's shareholders. These guys make open source mice among other open source hardware under the brand Ploopy. You can order one from them, assembled or as a kit, or you could print and build it entirely by yourself.

The mouse itself is pretty great. Coming from a long line of Logitech (MX518/G5/G500/G502), it's a bit larger than what I'm used to but I think I'm getting accustomed to it.

Here's another shot of it:

I'm not sure what makes it seem recycled, seems like a reasonably fine print to me. I believe it's printed in PLA which personally I'd want to see PETG but that's more for long-term durability than microplastic concerns, which I can't speak to.
