Die Erkennung der Gesten ist bei weitem zu empfindlich eingestellt und ich habe noch keine Möglichkeit in den Einstellungen gefunden, daran etwas zu ändern. Ständig löse ich unfreiwillig Gesten mit dem Trackpad des Macbook Air aus oder am Mac Mini mit der „Magic“ Mouse … *grummel* 😡</p>
Mika<p>I've mentioned before that the <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Apple" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Apple</a> Magic <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Trackpad" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Trackpad</a> 2's one of the best purchases I've ever made, and how perfect it is OOTB on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> - gestures and all. The only <i>downside</i><span> to it is that it's pretty pricey, esp the Black version that I got (tho I still think it's worth every penny).<br><br>Since then, I've been meaning to find any other cheaper alternatives to it cos I genuinely think switching from a (wireless) mouse to a trackpad has done wonders to just how nice it is to use and work on my desktop. Surprisingly and disappointingly, none of the </span><i>known</i> brands seems to bother to be in this market space besides Apple, not even <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Logitech" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Logitech</a> (who typically tends to be <i>everywhere</i><span>).<br><br>Right when I thought I was SOL, I discovered a bunch of Chinese </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/touchpad" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#touchpad</a> s - a lot of which are Magic Trackpad clones.. including this one I settled on, the <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/JOOMA" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#JOOMA</a> KB96. It not only looks similar to the Apple MT2, it has pretty much the exact same dimensions - surprisingly its glass surface also feels <b>exactly</b><span> the same as Apple's trackpads.<br><br>It tracks just as well too, and all my gestures (2, 3, 4-finger, etc.) work perfectly. Its connectivity options is better than the Apple MT2 even - supporting Wired USB-C, Bluetooth, and even a Wireless USB-A dongle (with USB-C adapter). The only </span><i>downside</i><span> to it is that unlike the Apple MT2 which supports clicks (in addition to taps) anywhere on the surface of the trackpad with really nice haptic feedback, this trackpad doesn't support clicks at all - only taps. This shouldn't matter for most people who's used to or even prefers taps though.<br><br>Unlike Apple's Magic Trackpad, it doesn't work OOTB on Linux - but fixing that is super, duper easy thanks to others who's discovered how to before. I've linked my own writing on how to do it on my Linux Wiki below. All in all, for just ~145 MYR (~34 USD) instead of Apple MT2's price tag of 599 MYR (~141 USD), this is quite a banger peripheral to pair with the budget alternative to Apple's Magic Keyboard I've posted about before.<br><br></span>🔗 <a href="https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008016979688.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008016979688.html</a><span><br><br></span>🔗 <a href="https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/linux-wiki/blob/master/topics/touchpad.md#apple-magic-trackpad-clone" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/linux-wiki/blob/master/topics/touchpad.md#apple-magic-trackpad-clone</a><span><br><br></span>🔗 <a href="https://sakurajima.social/notes/a3k4a7qgb3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://sakurajima.social/notes/a3k4a7qgb3</a></p>
