Number 1 seems wildly subjective based on the person's level of dexterity and the hardware used. The only way I could see that being meaningful if you did it on the exact same laptop side by side with Mac and Linux and tweaked the acceleration profile, but it doesn't actually sound like the author is talking about installing Linux on a macbook.
Numbers 2 and 3 are already in libinput. I am still struggling to understand what it is the author feels they need to fork the project for; there is some additional software that needs to be provided to really get the mac-like desktop experience with gestures, but that is covered by the libinput-gestures project. https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures
- ashtonkem 6y agoNumber 1 is like a relative benchmark on the same hardware, as compared to a production grade loadtest. While there’s no guarantee that any of us can match their performance, relative improvements matter.
- cycloptic 6y agoI see what you mean but that still would require testing on the same hardware repeatedly to really get a picture of what is going on. Then you could potentially making some small tweaks to the acceleration profile, but it's really a tiny amount of code.
