While some things might be better with a mouse, I’ve found I much prefer the trackpad to general tasks due to the gestures and overall feel. Never used trackpads much before getting a Mac a few years ago (besides occasionally using someone else’s computer).
yeah, macbook gestures are simply great, with a BetterTouchTool added to that it's just a masterpiece that nothing can beat.
Yeah I have to use a HP laptop for work periodically, I would nnnneeevvveeerrr use the trackpad on that thing. OOF! Mouse all the way, I don’t even know if the issue is hardware or software or both but the experience is awful. Windows seems to have ripped off some of macOS’s trackpad gestures and are just awful in comparison, and the mouse acceleration is horrible for general computing.
