I use a big heavy trackball. Kensington pro trackball is pricey but you get 
four buttons and a scroll ring.

Got my first one well over 10 years ago and it’s still my daily driver. I have 
a second wireless one on a Mac. The wired one is better overall if you can get 
them. The wireless one can work with a USB dongle (tiny) or Bluetooth.

Again, they’re a bit expensive but I love the four quadrant buttons too much 
and this thing has survived moving across the country a few times with my less 
than wonderful packing skills.

Lots of great advice in this thread though! Good luck!
