    Yeah I love moving my finger away from the middle of the touchpad and down to the clicky-thingy just to then move it back to the middle of the touchpad.

    That’s not a real clickpad then. Proper ones you can just press down everywhere. Even the type cover of my Surface has a that.

      Oh I thought you meant separate mouse-buttons. I still think tap-to-click is superior, but as always: if you like to click then go and configure your system to click

        Yes, that’s good. And since they changed from mouse single click to double click, the amount of needed changes stays the same.

        I personally prefer tap to click being off because I accidentally click too much when it is on. But it seems like I’m the only one with this problem, so I don’t mind changing a setting for it.

        Interestingly, on Windows you can’t set three finger tap to a middle click unless tap is on for this gesture only. It’s kind of a weird quirk.

        At lot of old laptops (including mine) have separate mouse buttons and tap-to-click. It was nice being able to use the separate mouse buttons when you didn’t want to risk jiggling the cursor while clicking. Unfortunately nowadays all touchpads have the buttons integrated with the touchpad.

          ThinkPads still have real mouse buttons, at least. And some who copy the ThinkPad, like HP Zbook.
