Statcounter reports that Windows 11 continues to lose its market share for the second month in a row. Windows 10, meanwhile, is gaining more users and is now back above the 70% mark.

    I switched from Win10 to Arch and now I do have problems with bluetooth, because my mouse officially only supports Windows. Think I will just force my mouse to support Arch (or the other way around). Still way better and faster than Windows.

      Now I’m a bit curious how a mouse could theoretically be windows only?

      IIRC bluetooth mice use basically the USB protocol but through bluetooth instead of a cable.

        It says officially so and I couldn’t connect so far, I’ll let you know if I manage to connect it.

              This one should work via bluetooth, some pages online indicate so, and it would be very rare that a bluetooth mouse does not work on linux.

              And it should absolutely work via the little usb dongle that came with the mouse, as for example my logitech wireless mouse even works in my uefi/bios with the usb receiver.
