I switched to Apple computers relatively recently (from mostly linux-based systems, and a little bit of Windows).
Very quickly, the Mac keyboard shortcuts have totally won me over with how much better they are. They’re actually a big part of the reason I got into the computer in the first place. It’s SO much nicer once you get used to it.
Doubly so because I use an ergonomic split keyboard, so the Mac layout means it’s much easier to do most actions without twisting my hands in weird ways. Copy in terminal? Cmd+C. Compared to Ctrl+Shift+C.
Ctrl still works for all of the standard terminal functions.
And, as a big vim user, I can use a vim emulator within my IDE. I can still get all of the IDE shortcuts with The Cmd key, but also all of the vim actions with the Ctrl key still work and don’t conflict. This is arguably the biggest win of all.
