Everyone knows MacBook touchpads are the best in the business. Plenty of Apple fans will tell you that once you’ve used one, “you’ll never want to touch a mouse again.” I’ve used a MacBook touchpad, though it was a while back. Not gonna lie, when I was in college, besides a Windows gaming laptop, my main work machine was an Apple iBook G4. I was a full-on Apple fanboy back then, and at one point I figured I’d stay one for life, keep buying iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, the works. Fate had other plans, thankfully, and I didn’t turn into that guy. Anyway, this isn’t a trip down memory lane. On to the actual topic.

It seems you can use libinput to configure your touchpad on Ubuntu. Like two fingers, three fingers, and four fingers.
