same in french. it's a dead key on our keyboard, so it's basically two keystrokes instead of one to type it. to be fair most special characters are behind AltG

  Interestingly, there's no such problem on Cyrillic keyboards despite being a totally different alphabet. We only need to switch the current layout to English which is what we do all the time anyway.

    Not despite, because. You need to switch to type in any other alphabet, so you switch to English. German, French keyboards work perfectly well for English, it’s just that the symbols are not as easy to reach. Personally, I use and love EurKEY [0] as I rarely type in German anyway and rather optimize for coding. [0]: https://eurkey.steffen.bruentjen.eu/ https://eurkey.steffen.bruentjen.eu/

  Admittedly ^ on a US keyboard also involves two keys.
