Lastly I would suggest you consider used gear.
I second this, buy used. Out of the 10 ish lenses I own, I've only bought two of them new. I almost only use my second hand gear 😅 I also bought my current camera body used, as well as my camera sling bag! There's so much money to be saved by looking at the second hand marked you wouldn't believe it.
I really like the look of the Ploopy Classic. I use an Elecom Huge, and I love it. I grew up with a Logitech TrackMan Marble (the old school one, not the ambidextrous one) and I loved it. So the Elecom Huge is like a modern version of that old classic, and it's great for office and daily use - not so much for gaming though.
All the promo pictures are cabled. I don't have a Ploopy myself, but to me they look like they all use a cabled connection.
Ah I guess I didn't think of that use case, it being the Proton app. I think I read somewhere it's possible with the Windows client, through their Bridge software. I haven't had the need to use the Proton client for other email accounts personally.
I'll give you that one. The small size is the only thing they've got going for them, in my opinion, since that makes them quicker to heat up. As for the timer function, I think most modern stoves have that? I know mine does, but I guess your mileage may vary.
I don't think I've ever seen a traditional stove that doesn't have a convection function built-in. I was shocked to learn this was not common in other regions. So for me, I just use the one that I already have, no need to buy a specialized device or take up extra counter space.
Mobile mail client? Why not use the Proton Mail app?
