In a nutshell, you can hold down SHIFT while rotating your view with the mouse to rotate without the need for a middle mouse button.

This can be extremely useful when working in Blender, as it allows you to quickly adjust your view without having to fiddle with any settings.

To use this shortcut, simply hold down SHIFT while left-clicking and dragging your mouse to rotate the view. You can also use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out.

This shortcut can be used in any viewport, including the 3D view, Timeline, and Node Editor.

Hope this helps!
