Are we counting the scrolling thing on the top as a button (which is clickable)? If so, 3.

Honestly not even sure what buttons beyond that would be used for, although I imagine it's some gaming thing. Maybe keybinds?

Three including scroll. I don't have a gaming PC so don't need anything more than a basic mouse.

It ergonomic and the buttons have resistance, it's really hard to accidentally hit them for me. I get the feed back that people don't know how to hold my mouse though. I recently changed it from the ring of seven buttons. I needed some more macros and key bindings.

I use them mostly when I'm programming. My current bindings for the num pad are as followed

1 - Copy
2 - Cut
3 - Paste

(this row is exclusive for my IDE)
4 - Go to Reference
5 - Go to Definition
6 - Go to Implementation

(this row is when I'm working in browsers)
7 - open dev console
8 - refresh
9 - clear cache and hard refresh

I don't quite have anything for 10 - 12. The two buttons under my wheel adjust my volume when I'm listening to music.

I can't even start with "3." because when I hit space, it changes it to "1." like I'm making a numbered list.

Three. I don't even want a gaming mouse because the extra buttons would just get in the way of my fingers.

I didn't mean to not respond this, but I don't even know how I would get anything done with one button, lol. Differences in working style I suppose. I'm sure you use keyboard shortcuts a lot.

it has all kinds of touch gestures, so it responds to more than just the one button. i like it for work, but it would suck as a gaming mouse, ok?

If it works for what you are doing, then that's fine by me. I'm not here to mouse shame anyone. I have a gaming mouse and don't use it at all for gaming, ha.

not the same mouse, but yeah. Two buttons on the left side, standard two buttons + mouse wheel, and two buttons on top.

Here I am. I use my track pad (I guess one button?) 95% of the time. The other 5% is when I'm working with a particular software, and that mouse just has the basic 3 (L+R+wheel)

is it Mac or PC? I think Mac's are a little more forgiving with the track pad, just by how iOS functions with clicks. I wouldn't say trackpads are not viable, especially if you are just browsing. It's just personal preference for me. Not everyone likes 20 buttons on their mouse either.

PC. I use a Surface, and it feels like it has a lot of useful gestures. I also use a stylus, though, when my classes need me to do math or work on graphs.

That makes sense too if it also has gestures, and you have a stylus.

I'm not very big on gestures after using them with my last phone. I kept skipping songs when I had to brush my hair out of my face, or I would change a page unintentionally. I have no doubt they are useful though. I had a coworker who used them on his Mac. It looked like he was conducting when he was working, but he did get his work done pretty quick.

5.
Left, right and mouse wheel.
Then I have two on the left side where my thumb rests. I use them sometimes but they're kinda annoying to hit and I never remember them.
When I was playing Deus Ex Human Revolution I made the side buttons zoom in and out for the sniper.
