"as a developer"; and "useless" in the literal sense: it could be the Touch Bar or anything else, I could care less because I don't use that part of the keyboard.
Even if it were annoying for the non-development functions I use it for when developing (volume control is not exactly "development", only auxiliary at best) I'd just remap them to actual keyboard shortcuts.
But it's not.
What's "annoying" is apps that could make it useful but put nonsense actions in there because horror vacui, not making use of its potential; but it's only so in an intellectual way, pragmatically I just ignore the Touch Bar in such cases and use the app as if I had if there was none.
- rhizome 7y agoThe sentence "The Touch Bar is useless to me" is the only negative sentiment in the paragraph (if not the entire comment), and it's followed by a few positive examples.
