> trackpad people seem to love this process, which I have never understood I mean... Right back at you: you should have adjusted the sensitivity :P The trackpads on my laptops are set so that a single moderately quick swipe across the surface is more than enough to cover an entire 24inch 4k monitor's worth of movement. And no one on a modern trackpad (that I know of... I'm mid 30s) uses the "tap, tap again to hold" pattern. They click the button of the trackpad with a thumb (hold) and navigate using a finger while the button is held. It's mid 2020s, every trackpad shipped supports multipoint input. --- That said - a traditional mouse is still the hard winner in this category. No question. But I'd take mouse -> trackball -> trackpad -> trackpoint. My hands are large and the positioning of the nub is incredibly awkward and uncomfortable to use for any extended duration without moving my hands just like for a trackpad, and the nub doesn't allow real multipoint input or navigational gestures.
