Since it uses -regular expressions- in .imwheelrc for specifying which programs to apply the settings to, you don't have to copy-paste same entries for each program separately.
In stead of:
--qutebrowser$-
--pcmanfm$-
can do this:
--(qutebrower-pcmanfm)$-
or just regex that matches every possible title:
--.-$-
Which means:
- - from the beginning of line
. - any character
- - appears zero or more times
$ - until the end of the line
That way imwheel is gonna be applying the setting to every program where it is possible.

the program isn't all that cool. I prefer to have the speed set to all applications globally rather than individually. I don't use Linux anymore, precisely because I don't have this option natively on any Linux system. Soo many people asking for native option build inside to the system and still nothing plus cant configure any buttons to do different action.

I just had to drop in & say you should totally do a tutorial on how to use Emac's EXWM as desktop in the NixOS Operating system. I have to start working out how to do that and as I am not a CS major I have a vague idea on how to get that to work. (although I did this process successfully on the Debian system before).

Why they set such a low scroll rate compared to other programs then gave the user no way to set it otherwise is beyond me.
Have a look at xinput(1). It can get and set various X input device properties. It'd be global to your user though. Look for mouse wheel inertia and enable mouse wheel emulation.

I had/have this problem. I used imwheel, and it kinda worked (and using it rn) but I just dont feel that its a real solution because its an additional layer. A real solution for me would be a deeper level change with libinput. But I wasnt able to figure it out fast enough, got bored, sticked with imwheel :/

I wish these tools could enable global autoscroll (as in middle mouse button click and drag to scroll). One of the things I miss most about Windows was it's native autoscroll. The Chrome addon is buggy on certain sites with built in smooth scrolling etc, the Windows one just worked well in all software.

It's your fault only, because if you need to go TOO down with your page, just use your keyboard with pagedown. The wheel mouse MUST be slow to READ slowly your text rows and if your mouse wheel it's too fast, you can't read naturally your text. So, fix your habit, not your mouse wheel scrolling.

I have a problem with the scroll wheel on a generic 2.4Ghz optical mouse. When I scroll in any direction it jumps up and down. The Arch wiki only show how to apply it to a certain program. It happens with everything including Firefox, LibreOffice etc. Surely I don't have to configure every program?

Thanks to you (your great tutorial videos)...
I have switched from Manjaro to Arch...
However I am still using KDE (You can call me a KDE fanboy)..
Not missing much, except may be the graphical package manager, but since I know most of the packages I use - its not a biggie.

Only somewhat related, but I know you enjoy QMK on your Ergodox. Have you looked at the Ploopy.co mouse, trackball, or miniball? They run QMK, so they are as configurable as the keyboards.
I am using the Ploopy Trackball. It replaced my Elecom Huge.
