In Praise of TouchBar

Getting rid of the Touch Bar seems like a massive step *BACKWARDS*,

I really like the TouchBar on MacBook Pro — the ability to program it, and also, the intuitive ways to change the brightness and volume controls, and access my Apple Music library (change songs without opening a new app).

Also, deep integration with Apple Photos (flag photos, send photos, favorite photos, rotate photos).

The TouchBar with the MacBook Pro was a *HUGE LEAP* forward in terms of futuristic thinking with the laptop. The 14” MacBook Pro as a massive compromise, a huge step BACKWARDS.

Touch and touching is good.

Get rid of this notion that ‘touching is bad’ or ‘see see, no touch’.
