my partner's mouse's scroll wheel has been broken for years. every time i've tried to get them a new mouse they stop using it after about 2 days and go back to the busted one. why? "idk it was too heavy/didn't fit their small hands/plastic felt weird" etc. deadass i've gone through about 6 or 7. idk what the point of this rambling post is other than people are adaptable to shitty conditions and most straight up don't care that their hardware/software is shitty.

Honestly, just don't go to that part of the Internet unless you absolutely have to. YouTube is a great resource for information, but it sucks as entertainment.
