I've gotten a lot of use out of using a sim-racing shifter (specifically Thrustmaster THA8) as an input device in Linux: https://photos.app.goo.gl/DksPS2ijo9aPCUi5A

These shifters are normally designed for use in sim-racing/gaming, but I haven't sim raced a single time in my life. The shifts can be reconfigured for various actions, and I use it for things like switching workspaces or various emacs bindings.

It's extremely mechanically satisfying to use.
