A couple of "problems" I've had with Jetbrains' (more specifically IntelliJ IDEA's) shortcuts are:
- Not everybody uses a "standard" set of shortcuts (understandable); so whenever I need to do something on another's system, unless they're on "IntelliJ IDEA Classic" keymap, I'm clueless for a while.
- Not wanting to re-learn the "default" (shipped with) "macOS" keymap in case they change it again because of clashes with system shortcuts
- When switching to Linux (when my MBP just decides to limit all cores to 0.8GHz for thermals and I can get no work done), I have no idea what shortcuts are there. It's a hit-and-miss, hoping Cmd maps to Alt and it's the same combination. If it were possible to replicate the entirety of the Apple keymap on Linux, I'd switch to using IntelliJ IDEA on my beefier linux machine in an instant. (Oh and if there's a terminal configurable such that I can set up iTerm's shortcuts, bliss!)
- "complex" shortcuts, like Cmd-Shift-Option-N; afraid to remap it to something (moreso, figuring out what'd be the best remap option), afraid to hurt my little-finger the more I use that.

- Splognosticus 7y agoPersonally I just use Shift-Shift for practically everything. Saves me learning someone else's keymap or dealing with platform-specific bindings, and there are quite a few useful commands that aren't bound to keys anyway.
- karmakaze 7y agoI've switched so many times between my own machines and using others' (on both Mac and Windows) that I can tolerate most of the standard keymaps. I just keep banging until stuff starts to click and my brain can slowly switch over.
