Interestingly, I really don't like MacBook trackpads. The actuation force is too high for my taste. Maybe this has changed.


I always just enable tap to click and also adjust the speed to max. Once your brain gets use to this it works great (for me).


That’s controlled entirely by software, and you can lower it or raise it if you so desire.


Oh! Well, either way, I'm not interested in Apple products because of their stances on repairability.


It's adjustable


And they're too large. I know, super unpopular opinion. I prefer the middle of the road size on trackpads with the physical buttons form the dell latitudes of 2010s. They work remarkably well with linux too.

The clickpads are pretty imprecise and poor, and compared to this the Macbook is much nicer.
