Those who don't use it are only mildly annoyed by it, but those who use it will raise holy hell now that it's gone.

i don’t care about the nub on mine, but i do care a lot about the left/right click buttons that take up so much of the trackpad area. just gimme a bigass trackpad.

ThinkPad isn't for you then. There are plenty of laptops with huge track pads, there aren't many with a nub.

If Framework offered a nub, I'd switch. Until then, I'm sticking with whichever 14" Thinkpad has a nub.

Same. I'm stuck on an Apple laptop and much prefer my personal Thinkpad.

At least I'm up for an upgrade, so I'll get an M-series chip, which is cool. I really don't like macOS though and much prefer my Linux workflow.
