honestly, I was finding some success drawing with just my finger on the touch screen of my phone at one point. Overall, I'd really like to get myself something that feels more intuitive than the tablet. I also still don't have a mouse for the laptop yet, so I can't click and drag anything very well because it has a trackpad, so messing with sliders is already aggravating. every single line I make looks like crap with this tablet, it makes me feel like I might as well be drawing with my feet, and I've been fidgeting with settings, and it doesn't seem like anything helps. not just due to coordination issues, I think I could get used to that part, but because I feel like I wouldn't be having this specific problem with getting things to register. it's a huion tablet, which is the brand I wanted, but I was gonna buy myself one where you can see what you're drawing on the screen of the tablet itself. and tbh this isn't really what I had wanted.

there's like a 20% chance that any line I try to put down won't actually register. like I can ctrl+z and it doesn't even go back a step, the line didn't get drawn.

I've been using pen and paper for so long and I have a really light touch, and it feels like I have to jam the pen down to get it to register, at which point I might as well have not set the pen sensitivity to anything at all because the thickest line is the only kind I can make? any lighter and it won't show up on the screen at all. I cannot make one line that looks good using it. my friend helped me get firealpaca onto the laptop, and get the tablet set up with the right drivers, aaaaand. And this is especially a problem when it comes to the tablet.
