>MacBooks are worse now than they were since 2015. I won't upgrade until they get rid of the TouchBar. I would rather go back to Windows than use that stupid TouchBar.

But you don't HAVE to use it, right?

You kind of need to if you want to change the screen brightness, play/pause music or video and change the volume. These are things I do all the time on my keyboard and honestly the experience with TouchBar is drastically less pleasant than it is with normal keys.

The Touch Bar replaces the entire top row of keys. No more escape key. Vim users were pretty pissed.
