I haven't used a mouse for 14 years

4 hours ago

The author has not used an external mouse since 2012, relying on Mac trackpads.
Mac trackpad precision is highly praised, especially for web and graphic design work.
Dragging objects traditionally requires force, which can be uncomfortable over time.
Three fingers drag is a feature that allows dragging without much force by using three fingers.
Tap to click can be enabled to use the trackpad without physically clicking it.
Three fingers drag is now hidden in accessibility settings: System Settings > Accessibility > Pointer Control > Trackpad Options > Dragging style.
The author compares Mac trackpads favorably to Windows laptop touchpads, which often require external mice.
