Keyboard and mouse suggestions (sh.itjust.works)

Hello,

Does anyone have any recommendations on a keyboard and mouse they use with the deck? I love the control scheme of the deck but some games just require a keyboard and mouse to be more enjoyable.

I got a laptray for a laptop which should be big enough. Always welcome any suggestions on those as well.

Thanks!

It depends hardly on the kind of keyboard/mouse you want. My recommendations, based on workstation I'm keeping at home:

Keyboards

Logitech K780 (as @supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz said)
Logitech MX Keys (full or mini, if you don't mind about numpad), this is my top keyboard atm, the one I'm using as developer mostly.
Logitech G413/G413 TKL (wired, but works nice out of the box, mechanical, perfect for gaming and typing)

Mouses

Logitech G203 (wired, works nicely on Linux too)
Logitech M650 Signature (my favourite mouse, actually)
HP 430 Bluetooth Mouse (works nicely, and does not require dongle because it works throught USB)

Extra

Logitech devices use to have all-in-one dongles, so you only need one for connecting all devices, saving you some USB ports. The unifyied dongle looks like this.
