as someone who moves between windows and mac, first thing I do is to remap the cmd key on the ctrl key.
That means that many of the common shortcuts such as copy paste are on the same physicals buttons regardless of the OS.
Huge quality of life improvement.
- brimble 5y agoI find the Mac version creates less strain. It does harm muscle memory, though, if you have to switch between the two often. On my Mac layout I basically never touch lower-left ctrl, just cmd (which is faster and requires less movement and stretching to strike than ctrl does) and CAPS LOCK, which I've mapped to ctrl. Pressing bottom-left-ctrl makes me rotate my wrist and stretch my pinkie down—I don't have RSI in my left wrist, but I can feel the tension that motion creates. Cmd, I just shift my thumb over an inch or so, no wrist rotation, everything stays more relaxed. CAPS LOCK, pinkie just moves a few mm left, other fingers can stay where they are unless needed for something else.
