Macbook 16, remote control?

Has anyone experienced happily using the apple TV remote for iTunes, Keynote, etc., and then bought a Macbook Pro 16" ?

Have you been able to find a user-friendly remote control possibility?

Thanks

Catalina: Apple TV app: Remote Control We all remember Front Row and our beloved Apple Remote. Now that macOS Catalina has the very cool Apple TV app, what do we do for remote controlling our Macs? When it comes to remote controlling your movies, music or podcasts, an iPhone app doesn't feel so "thin" anymore does it? We want a 'real' remote control. We want the Apple Remote back! Does anyone know of any 'tolerable' solutions to this get-out-of-couch-to-adjust-volume-and-rewind problem?

My imac can see the apple tv in airplay and I select it and I goto to the bedroom and I can see the image from the imac on the Apple tv. The problem is how do I control the imac using apple tv in the bedroom? I am trying to view the imovie or photos in the bedroom with apple tv remote does not work? How do I get this to work?

As far as I know the infrared remote was removed years ago from the Mac...

If you can't control your TV or receiver with your Apple TV ...

Use other remotes to control Apple TV
