    I'm glad someone found a use for the second-worst input device ever developed.

      What's the worst?

        Honorable mention to the great hockey puck mouse of the late 90s.

        They released a newer version.

        It's the official remote of hell: https://babylonbee.com/news/hell-confirms-all-its-appliances...

          What’s so bad about it? I don’t have any complaints about that remote

            Agreed, it’s actually one of my favorite tv input devices because it has the 7-8 only buttons I ever use on a tv remote without any other gimmicks like crappy infrared pointers. Plus it has Find My integration for when my kids inevitably kick it under the sofa.

            Edit: the apple touchpad swipe remote was definitely a chore to use

            It’s missing the Netflix button

              Apple tried to be different by releasing the first gen version with trackpad but eventually caved in for D pad like others lol. I do remember swiping for every single x/y movement on screen felt like a chore.
