> [Acceleration is] configurable in software
I learned about this today. Looking forward to turning it on on my ThinkPad. The default behavior on Windows 10 with the Synaptics drivers for my ThinkPad X1 Carbon gen 3 (2015) is not to have any acceleration, only inertia.
My personal opinion is that 3-finger drag-and-drop > double-tap-and-hold for 2 reasons:
- there is no delay
- you don't risk running out of space when dragging things. You can leave 2 fingers on the trackpad and keep dragging with your 3rd finger.
