I agree, I’ve never gotten the idea that a trackpad is like a touchscreen, there’s a disconnect there that makes it feel like a pointing device to me. Maybe I’d feel different with one of those giant macbook trackpads, but I doubt it

Foone’s great, always happy when her content pops up
I use a TCL Flip 2, bought it unlocked on ebay for $40. It has hotspot, mms, and emoji support (can’t remember if the included keyboard has any emoji, since I use a custom one that has some, but the system can recognize and display most emoji people send). It actually runs a slimmed down version of android and you can root it and run some stuff, though most things are a pain to use. I’ve got signal, jerboa, and adaway running on mine, though I haven’t found another browser that plays nice yet.

I guess the most famous I’ve met is Screamin’ Scott Simon of Sha Na Na. He’s friends with my mom. Went to visit one year and he took us to his home in the valley of LA. Lovely guy, and the most insane driver I’ve ever met.
Traditional for everything that isn’t a touchscreen. Partly bc it’s what I was raised with, partly practical. It’s easier for me to two-finger scroll traditionally on a trackpad since it’s less finger/wrist movement. If I use natural my fingernails hit the trackpad making the input unreliable, or I end up having to p much move my whole forearm to scroll. So traditional works better for me personally.
I get the idea behind natural scrolling, but there’s that level of disconnect for me since I’m not interacting with screen directly, so my brain thinks of it like a mouse instead of like touchscreen. I’m guessing my brain might think of it differently had I been a little younger; I’ve used computers to some extent all my life, but didn’t own a touchscreen device until college.
Idk, natural scrolling on any pointing device trips me up.
