    The Touch Bar is garbage UX and I stand by that. I don’t want to have to look down at my keyboard EVER.

      Yep, without really good tactile feedback it’s worse than useless, as it removed the actually useful function row. And even then I’m not too sure what you would use it for…the fact that by default in terminal it let you change the theme is really telling, even Apple couldn’t think of anything useful for it.

    I’ve had the Touch Bar since 2018.

    I’m convinced I’ve accidentally activated it far more times than I intended to activate.

    And replacing the “esc” key with a touch key? It deserved to die.

    My 2016 makes me happy. I do not want to pay more for less.

    Good riddance.

    As a professional, I keep my fingers on the keyboard at all times.

    Then came the touchbar. Phantom key presses all the time, having to be conscious where your fingers are at all times. A true nightmare. So glad to have the function keys back.

    I’m glad I got the original MacBook Pro with M1 with the touch bar, it is a Pro with fans and all yet it seems as light and slim as the current MacBook Air, I also love the touch bar

    I hated that thing. Replacing the F keys with that was an F’ing disaster. Also it was buggy. Had to take mine in for repairs twice.

    I’m so mad the took that out. I vj on occasion and that shit was a god send. You ever try to scrub video in real time with a mouse, like you’re a dJ? That thing made it so easy. Now I gotta attach a controller like a shmuck.

    I have a 2018 MacBook Pro and to this day, I can skip almost any ad using the Touch Bar. It’s a super power and I love it, no one else seems to know about it though.

    I think the Touch Bar helped with the development of Apple Silicon or at least its integration with macOS, so the title could also read “…You Delivered Incredible Results”.

    I still have the touch bar on the 2019 16” Pro. I love it and don’t want the new models without it

    Adding a display into the track pad sounds like a good idea

    Most of what Apple does, does

    Think about a Keyboard with OLED keys

    Heck even one with RGB and Brightness Control would be a beauty to behold

    I love the Touch Bar but…yeah…it was so underutilized.

    But let’s be honest, the escape key was just a ludicrous omission.
