I'm a long time Mac user but didn't realized that my Macbook has force touch functionality until now. Cannot see how 'force touch' adds any value, though.

I know it's different but in google maps for example it's super annoying when instead of scrolling down the page - the map iframe is trying to zoom out.
- tobr 9y agoNot sure I follow, scrolling and dragging are two completely different gestures? Overloading scroll to mean zoom is problematic, but that's not happening here. You need to click "deeper" than usual for seemingly no reason. Fwiw I also thought the page was broken in Safari, never used force touch before on a website except to preview links.
- usaphp 9y agoI was referring about the 3d touch on iPhones. Maybe safari on mac and on iphone share something in them which makes 3d touch on iphone act like a force touch on macs.
