Hello,

I have an old macbook pro 2012. With Apple dropping all support for it, I want to run Linux on it. The caveat is - Im looking for the same feel as the experience with the macbook trackpad and keyboard.

I’ve tried a few different OS’s on it, and each time, it runs as how you would expect. No issues with installation or anything, and most issues have a small or easy fix.

Being used to old habits with that laptop, I haven’t had good luck with remapping things to give it it’s old feel again.

By feel, I mean things like mapping trackpad gestures, some of the “function row” to map the same things as they keyboard has them, remapping some hotkeys to make use of the command button, etc.

I was wondering if there was an OS that has a lot of the things like mouse gestures, or the keyboard mappings of those laptops already built into it.
