“Unbiased” is a silly word whose use shows a lack of understanding of systems of power.
Dr. Angela Collier and Dr. Fatima both make good videos about science and science communication.

Up and running again suggests it wasn’t running before. Why not and what did you do?

I find the middle click button awkward to use so I typically rebind the forward side button to middle click

This is a useful lesson for linux newbies in general: when you want to install a program, go to your package manager first, not your web browser.

That page you linked is mac installation. You can install solaar straight from the fedora package manager, icon is a bag called Software.

Don’t use Manjaro it’s a wildly unstable piece of shit
Many KVM switches allow you to use a keyboard shortcut to switch. Still a hardware button, but at least it’s where your hand already is, maybe.
