Not everybody around me. Nobody around me has ever mentioned a touchpad outside of threads about the touchpad. It’s not a thing.
Everybody on Steam seems to be playing controller games on sticks, though. At least from the data Steam shares. Which matches reviews at the time (and later, when people had to pay attention to them on the Deck), the way games on Deck are put together by devs, the low sales of the Controller, the changes to the Vive controller, the lack of other hardware manufacturers doing dual touchpads and pretty much every other piece of info at scale we have beyond anecdote.
Man, online chatter sucks and does bad things to people. I think I’m done with this. Have fun with the dual pads Valve bestowed upon you. I don’t need you to change your mind about their popularity, but man, there’s going to be a Smithers moment for you at some point on something else and it sure would be good if you thought back to this.
