The keyboard layout is absolutely non standard in the UK but it's absolutely standard apple in the UK.
Appreciate that may be off if you're trying to adopt but I'm so used to this layout after many, many years. I'm using a 2007 iMac keyboard and it matches exactly to my 2019 16".
For example, the alt 3 for hash is so naturally embedded I reach for it when using windows machines. I have to do weird rebinds on my windows setup to match the layout because it's so embedded. I think macs have had the same keyboard layout for 15 years or so at this point.
- happymellon 5y agoThat's nice that you have trained yourself, but it's crappy enough that MacWorld had to write an article explaining how to use the keyboard. https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/hashtag-mac-3688542/ https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/hashtag-mac-3688542/
- breakfastduck 5y agoIt's not about training, it's about being a mac user for over 15 years. If they suddenly changed the keyboard layout I and many other long time users would be absolutely infuriated. This is just the correct keyboard layout for me.
