    You can buy standalone trackpads, or a pen tablet. You are probably pressing too hard if you manage to get friction burn, it is exactly the same as a touchscreen.

    I prefer the Macbook trackpad, but if I find myself getting finger pain from too much trackpad use, I need to start learning more keyboard shortcuts and using Vim keybinds in my browser using an extension. By the way, to close tabs in any app, Command+w. I just always keep my left thumb resting on that command key at all times.

    4:32 That's mainly Adobe's fault, not Apple's. Adobe's apps have an underwhelming UI and UX, especially when using a trackpad as a primary pointing device. Alternatives like Final Cut Pro, Affinity Photo, Pixelmator Pro work great with it.

    I work a lot with SQL (on windows) and forcing myself to use a lot of keyboard shortcuts..it's always annoying to use the mouse - since you have to - when you have both hands on your kb - so, I'll give the track pad a try.

But again mouse is fast when you do more precise work like photoshop or illustrator. By the way How do you use your razer viper with mac? With dongle or something? Which mouse software do you use with it?

    Yeah I just have a USB-A to C converter - it's not the prettiest setup and it sticks out from the side but it was the best I can think of. I use 3 apps to make all the annoying stuff like mouse acceleration go away: mac mouse fix, sensible side buttons, and linear mouse. I have 2 profiles that are on board of my viper that I've set up on windows so I don't have to install synapse on mac. So whenever I connect the mouse to the mac I just switch profiles. I have macros that let me quick switch virtual desktops and open mission control.

    Better than trackpad or mouse is actually learning keyboard shortcuts. That turns you into a speed productivity machine. For example, instead of middle mouse click for closing tabs, holding ctrl+w or cmd+w will close the tab. ctrl+t new tab, ctrl+tab to switch tabs, ctrl+shift+t to undo a closed tab ;)
