TIL I’m a fingertip gripper
Ah a fellow fingertip gripper mate
Fingertip grippers unite!
Same here. I have a long hand, resting my palm on the back of the mouse makes my fingers peek out the front :/
Same. And it doesn’t tire me at all. I imagine it depends on how big your hands are.
I use a thumb ball mouse FUCK YOUR GRIPS.
Trackpoint ftw 😁
Show me your nipple!
I use a finger trackball. I have no idea how that grip fits in here.

I’ve used it as long as I can remember. Palm grip just feels weirdly… intimate? And I’m no gamer, tho I respect 'em o7
Yep, watch some esports, you’ll see plenty of different postures, mouse grips, keyboard placements, etc
TIL that I have no idea how I hold my mouse, it’s just happens. I suspect I switch style based on what I do.
I always used fingertip with small hands and never thought it was weird. I just figured out maybe it’s because I played piano growing up? It feels more natural to have a C shape with my hand and space between the mouse and my palm.
I never played the piano but I use fingertip too. (I also have small hands btw)
I just end up using fingertip because all the good mice are too god damned small, but I’d much rather use palm grip
I did this for ages fighting with various logitech and microsoft mice, always ended up getting cramps in my mouse hand. Eventually landed on the corsair nightsword a few years ago, very comfortable for a full palm grip, highly recommend. Maybe have a look there.
How do palm gripper move the mouse down? They use their whole arm? I’ve been told I keep my sensitivity high, as I can cross my entire screen top to bottom and left to right without lifting my hand off the desk. Anything else seems much more tiring.
You move your mouse without moving your arm? Like do you just use your wrist or something?
Just using my fingers. I use a mouse with enough space between my palm and the back of the mouse.
Claw… My hands are too goddamn big…
Palm grip is modeled after charlie kirk hands. My fingers are literally dragging on the table when I grip mine like that.
I use claw and fingertip depending on what I’m doing.
I use claw because nothing since the G9x has been big enough to do otherwise
I use Palm until my fingers ache and I remember that I need to not grip it like that any more (some of my fingers ache from it), and then I move to fingertip for a while.
I just realized I don’t know how I hold y mouse.
I’ve been using the fingertip grip when I lay in bed since I ain’t got a proper desk. Otherwise I use more of a palm grip when sitting up and using my mouse on the stand I use to hold my monitor.
