let's stop justifying this choice from Apple

it annoys everyone, it's a dumb design, you get a message from your Mac telling you that the mouse has no charge and suddenly you can't work anymore for a few minutes, it's idiotic, plain and simple



Wireless charging is also idiotic, to someone.

You don't like the mouse, that's fine, I also don't like the mouse.

But unless you've actually used the mouse for an extended period: I don't think you understood the point that you:

A) don't need it plugged in constantly

and

B) if you charge it for a handful of seconds it lasts the rest of the day, meaning you don't actually have to stop working.


Yeah, I've been using these on multiple Macs for a decade now and it's just not an issue.

If I get the warning the mouse is getting low on charge I just plug it in, go grab a drink or use the bathroom, and by the time I get back it's good for the rest of the day.

Then all I have to do is remember to plug it in overnight and it'll be good for months. YMMV.
