mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace VS MonitorControl

If you want to have mouse scroll wheel acceleration, you might be interested in a small project of mine: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-u...

I'm using this all the time on non-Mac platforms. Once you get used to this, it's hard to get back.

But I'm still waiting that such a feature gets more built into the core, e.g. libinput or so.

Regarding quickly scrolling around in a large document, there is also scroll wheel acceleration, i.e. the users finger scroll speed is not just a linear function mapped onto the software scroll speed but rather it can accelerate.

MacOS, iOS and Android have this anyway, and a few custom software as well.

I implemented a cross platform user-space variant of this, to get mouse scroll wheel acceleration. You can even use this in addition to the native scroll wheel acceleration on MacOS.

Turn on adaptive acceleration. Enable gestures. Look into this project that ports macOS-style scrolling acceleration to X11 and Wayland: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace

I never had an iPod, but I wonder, did it use some acceleration scheme? I.e. your physical scroll speed was not just linearly mapped to the virtual scroll speed but some quadratic or even exponential scheme?

Because I know that they do the same on OSX for scrolling, i.e. scrolling has an acceleration scheme, which I very much enjoy, and always miss when I'm on other operating systems.

For that reason, I implemented such scroll acceleration in user space. Some further details and references are in the README. https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-u...

Workaround: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace. Enables inertia in Chromium and Qt apps, but breaks it in GTK apps (fun!).

Good video, but I find https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace a much better solution.

I use "Monitor Control" on my Mac Studio to control the brightness of my Dell monitor:

Just wanted to put in a plug for the MonitorControl app. I just installed it, and it enables brightness control for the QN700B from Apple's keyboard. So great not to have to pull up any Samsung menus to adjust it.

Let me introduce you to Monitor Control:https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl

Good free alternative is MonitorControl. Pretty sure it does everything Lunar does but is open-sourced.

You can with monitor control app

I'm glad you asked! I control the volume of them thru the monitor using the back/forward buttons on my mx master 3 mouse via the MonitorControl app, it's great!

Installed https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl and worked like a charm, big thanks!

As a fellow Mac + OLED TV owner, I think you'll appreciate these too. MonitorControl to access brightness settings through your keyboard and Hazeover to darken background and prevent burn-in.
