One of the mayor things to hate is that you need to hold down the trackpad to do any stuff

System Settings > Trackpad > "Tap to click" fixes that.

Try out the other options there too: two-finger tap for right-click, two-finger drag for scroll, and three-finger drag window by title bar.

Also the default speed is useful for Gen X or older. Gotta max out pointer speed and keyboard repeat rate when you buy a new Mac.
