I bought a macropad with knobs just because of this... (I use a Wacom tablet in place of a mouse and it doesn't have a worthy scrollwheel alternative, so I couldn't navigate many "modern" websites and programs)

I have a Wacom Intuos with a scroll wheel.

Edit: not the touch ring, either. An old school one with an actual wheel, just like a mouse scroll wheel but wider.

oh nice. What's the model ? I'm curious, never heard of it

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh sorry, I was mistaken. It's a Wacom Graphire 4.

Didn't know about it, makes you wonder why they deemed the "touch ring" superior to a proper physical wheel

There was a time in the mid-00s when "touch" was a buzzword that immediately increased sales by 200%, and they probably never got out of that mode.
