Last time I tried it was in the KDE 3 days and there were mappings that you could set up but it required so much tedious work, often per app.
the end result was terrible and inconsistent.
I’ve also explored the Ctrl/Cmd separation in GNOME/GTK3 but it’s deep into the code, guess what there’s actually a constant or two dedicated for that and it could magically work but they’re entirely unavailabe to configuration, probably pertain to some build time thing for macOS, gated by auto #define’d per platform values. Turns out nobody cares and it requires quite an involvement to get into the thing, build a proper patch, submit it, have it reviewed and accepted.
In the end I stuck for a while in tiled WM land (awesome, i3) with deft configuration, and minimal desktop apps that wouldn’t require such shortcuts, but you always end up needing a browser or something and things become leaky and inconsistent again. So I moved back to macOS.
