I love my Mac Mini (2018) and swear by it.
The only thing I have NOT been able to do is any kind of blue-toothy remote control.
I use the Mini (among many other things!) as an Apple TV. So, when I'm sitting on the couch, I would like to at least push pause and play, without having to go back to my desk.
But nothing I have tried works, from a very cheap bluetooth keyboard (not surprised that didn't work) to the most expensive Apple Magic trackpad. I am surprised that last one didn't work. It works great when connected by wire to the unit, but as soon as I unplug it - nada, zilch, bupkis, nothing.
I also at one point tried enhancing the blue tooth signal with a little booster doodad that plugs into one of the USB ports. As far as I can tell, it doesn't help or even do anything.
thoughts? feedback? thanks.
