Keyboard Maestro 11
Unfortunately, the StreamDeck doesn't emulate a standard USB HID device, so it needs a driver running in the background to detect button presses and do things like generate keystrokes or call Keyboard Maestro macros.
There's streamdeck-ui (https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/), which is an open-source alternative, but it at first glance it seems to be only for Linux).
There are a bunch of other macro/launcher pads like the StreamDeck that DO act as standard USB HID keyboards, though, and those should work fine with Keyboard Maestro using keyboard shortcut triggers.

Streamdeck + on Linux
Found that one which seems to work with older models. https://github.com/timothycrosley/streamdeck-ui or https://flathub.org/apps/com.feaneron.Boatswain

Help please
what OS do you have on ur pi? from what i know stream deck is only compatible with Windows and MacOS, you’d have to do a special setup to use it with Linux

This keyboard would be awesome for Bitwig. Or audio production in general
Not sure if that keyboard has open source editing software, but Elgato Stream Deck certainly does.

Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
tbh I didn’t have a problem with the official Windows app so I can’t say anything about that much
But under Linux I used this
https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/
Works pretty well by my experience under Debian. There are some edge cases like Wayland (see the issues) though.

Linux Streamers, What Tips, Tricks, and Tools Do You Use?
The only tip I'd have would be for Wayland users who suffer from not having global shortcuts work with OBS: obs-cli with obs-websocket have you covered. Set a keyboard shortcut or Stream Deck button (using streamdeck-ui) to execute an obs-cli command and you're done.

Elgato Keylights
Anyone have any experience with the ElGato Keylights on Linux? I use Ubuntu 22.04. I have stream deck that I use with Streamdeck-ui and I wanted to know if anyone uses these lights with a cli program that would allow me to control them? On, Off, brightness, etc?
- No Google, for the last time, I don't want that thing

Ask HN: What sub $200 product improved your 2022
Thanks for the info, I wasn't aware of the Stream Deck. It is also supported on Linux by Open Source library and app. Very tempting.

Different Strokes for Different Folks
For an even more configurable mouse, check out the Ploopy mouse and trackballs: https://ploopy.co/
Fully open source, the mouse (that I own) uses QMK for its firmware. Which means I can use key binding layers rather than single buttons. In other words, one button acts like a shift button that modifies the action of the other buttons. So I have easy access to page up/down, mission control (what was exposé in macOS), paste plain (shift+option+cmd+v), etc etc. I don't have anything Emacs specific on the mouse, but my keyboard (Keychron Q10) has several macro keys that I have meta-x and ctrl-g bound to.

My G502 mouse lasted 2 years before dying sometime in 2022. Found a G602 from 2013 that’s nearing 10 years and still kicking ass. They TRULY don’t make them like they used to.
If you truly want a mouse built to last, look into a Ploopy (https://ploopy.co/). You can get trackball ones, or a classic style mouse. It's fully open source and uses 3D printed parts, so not only can you easily get it repaired, you can also modify it to your hearts content. Also possible to remap the buttons or even program the microcontroller with custom code to do specific tasks if you wish.

Wait what?... THEY MAKE MK MICE NOW?!?
I have no affiliation with https://ploopy.co, but as an enjoyer of their products, I'd urge you to take a look at their mouse & trackball if you want a proper custom mouse/trackball made for keyboard enthusiasts. 10/10 stuff.

What are my alternatives to Atreus62
I haven’t gotten around to trying anything from fingerpunch yet (I think their faux fox series is probably their most popular) but I don’t imagine any of their cases meant for trackballs is all that hard to work with (and if you just want a trackball, Ploopy seems to be the go to)
