Recently upgraded my work laptop to an M1 and I gotta say I miss the touchbar. Very sad that they got rid of it seemingly forever. Concretely it was great for managing screen recording. But in general I don’t understand the backlash, especially once they added a physical escape key for my fellow vim heads.

The haters won but I wonder what their victory cost us. Am I supposed to be happy I got my F11 key back??

The touchpads are absolutely absurdly large, Apple could have easily made it a little bit smaller and fit both a row of function keys and the touch bar.

yeah, I don't understand why they felt they had to make it that big. Now it is just in the way.

I agree, I'm on the 2019 16" MBP, the one with physical ESC and touchbar. I honestly love the touchbar once you spice it up with BetterTouchTool you can make it extremely useful.
