I don't understand trackpoint. I've tried flat & adaptive pressure profiles and a mix of different sensitivities.

I always overshoot what I'm trying to click on a tiny bit. With a macbook touchpad, that just doesn't happen at all.

Also, it feels like the force and dexterity to use a trackpoint puts a bit too much pressure on my finger.

I've tried using a trackpoint for a while. I desperately regret switching my corp laptop from a macbook to thinkpad several months ago. Linux is nice, but now I have to deal with this really shitty trackpad for over another year until my refresh.
