I dislike Macs quite badly and go through a lot of hoops in the hopes of not being forced to use a Mac when I start a new job. I hate the keyboard. I hate the touchbar. I hate the MacOS in general. Despite this though, there is one thing I praise a lot and among all peers, and that is its trackpad.
The trackpad is extremely responsive. The "click but it's not a clickpad" feature they have is perfect.
Combine that with the responsive, intuitive and really great gestures that aren't event based, but rather they are smooth gestures that can be turned back and undone. Compared to something like libinput-gestures which captures the gesture and then triggers a shortcut of some sort at the very end.
I find it hard to explain. The trackpad doesn't feel like it's in the way. It feels part of you once you understand and get used to the gestures.
