As a developer, the "one big bulletin board" visual model that Figma promotes is one of the worst steps backwards in UX I have ever had to deal with. I am constantly zooming in and out and scrolling around trying to find anything. I hate it so much.

As a MacOS user, zooming on a touchpad is painful.

I'm a MacOS user at work and ThinkPad user in private and honestly, the MacBook (we have MacBook Pros) trackpad is awesome. I've never been so at ease with not having a mouse as I am with the work MacBook. It works with great precision for a regular mouse and zoom is awesome. It's also in exactly the right place, slightly off center and huge that I can use keyboard shortcuts and easily switch to mouse (i.e. trackpad) use when it's gonna be easier/faster to use the mouse to select/do something.

I'm never gonna buy into the Apple ecosystem on principle but product wise it's great to have it at work. On my ThinkPad I always go for my actual mouse when I need precision but the hand travel time between mouse and keyboard use is distracting.
