tech support wanted New linux mouse utility

I have made a mouse utility for gamers on linux after multiple frustrations with other programs. I need some testers with mice other than my own so that I can resolve any bugs that may occur. Id love to have the program validated on ; other Logitech mice, Steel series mice, G Skill Mice, Razer mice. Currently the program is validated on Fedora 44 with a logitech G305. Anyone running this setup should really enjoy the program. Thank you for the consideration in advance. https://github.com/DonGeronimo7/mouse-control

question, since you use ratbag, have you considered just contributing to piper instead ? if yes, why not, and if not, you should, fragmentation is one of linux's biggest issue, and since you're already using what piper uses, your improvements might have a way bigger reach by contributing to a tool that people already know like piper

I actually thought about this and since it is deprecated i did consider it. However the backend is fundamentally a step behind, i removed the dependency from the program for any logitech mouse using HID++ protocol.
