re: trackpoint rant
from all of the pointing devices i have used, my favourite for normal use really is a trackpad, with trackballs being close, although you can't really beat trackpads with all the gestures that leave more space for keyboard shortcuts, yes, ploopy has nice qmk trackballs but at least their mini trackball suffers from having shitty switches which i still haven't gotten around to replacingand safe to say, i still use normal mice for first-person camera games
