I'm also a tap to click person.

It used to be terrible on old non-mac machines (probably still is), but Apple's trackpad has been good enough for tap to click to be preferable since at least 2014, maybe earlier.

Another lesser known feature I think is great is three finger drag. This lets you move a window by just using three fingers on the menu bar of that window. It used to be an easy to find setting, but they've since buried it in trackpad accessibility settings for some reason. It's still one of the first things I enable on a new machine.

Yes, three finger drag is a huge friction-saver. Any time I see someone working without one or the other I cringe.
