Same here. I found learning vim to be easier than getting used to the nib. Would love for the nib to be effective for me. I think the nib requires to much force to push around.

You shouldn't be applying force. The idea is to move it around like a joystick. Almost all force should be lateral.

Adjust the sensitivity upwards and it requires virtually no force at all.

I'm not sure what sensitivity I have it set at but most of the time I'm only moving the tip of my finger maybe half a millimeter at the most. you shouldn't have to press it that hard but it does take a while for most poeple to get the hang of it.
