libinput-three-finger-drag had updates and looks fine!

I really like being able to drag stuff with 3 fingers on the touchpad (something I got used to more than 10 years ago using MacOS)

Breaking news: A self-proclaimed "tech visionary" brags about his brave odyssey of not touching a mouse in 14 years 🙄💻. Meanwhile, most of us are still trying to figure out how to enable three-finger drag without accidentally purchasing a timeshare in the Bahamas. 🎉🤦‍♂️

Uso mouse boa parte do tempo, mas quando estou em casa ou na rua com o laptop eu uso muito o touchpad, e aí, tem dois ajustes que melhoram muito, mas muito mesmo, o conforto, na minha opinião, não sei com certeza o nome oficial em português pois a minha interface está em inglês mas são eles:

• tap to click (toque para clicar?)
• three finger drag (arrastar com três dedos)

Este último eu acostumei a usar muitos anos atrás quando tinha um Mac, e por sorte, consigo ter no meu #Manjaro #XFCE instalando https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libinput-three-finger-drag #ThreeFingerDrag

Has anyone here found a way of getting a three-finger-drag on Manjaro? (like there is on MacOS) I couldn't make these work: https://github.com/marsqing/libinput-three-finger-drag

update: running a pre-built executable form this repo kind of works, now I have to understand how to auto-start it with the correct permissions (I'm very unprepared to use gnu/linux, even after years of using it...)

update2: I'm not sure it is advisable but I added myself to the input group with sudo gpasswd -a $USER input and added the executable to "Session and Startup > Application Autostart". And it seems to work!
