- hiAndrewQuinn 2y agoI try to remap my programs' keybindings as little as possible, as a general rule. Sometimes if I see an advantage that's both big and obvious, I'll take the plunge and remap. Like as a teenager when I realized switching to Bumper Jumper in Halo 3 would make me much better with aerials, because I could turn and jump simultaneously. Otherwise the annoyance of having to relearn the command bindings any time I'm not at one of my preferred interfaces just doesn't feel worth it. That being said, I did recently get one of those fancy split keyboards which lets you remap the keys. Ctrl is something I trigger with my thumb now, not pinky, and so C-b feels as natural as C-a would at a normal laptop keyboard.
- jacknews 2y agook that makes sense, I have caps-lock mapped to ctrl, so ctrl-a is the obvious mapping for me.
