Remapping the command key to alt is a pretty straightforward feature built into the OS.
- RussianCow 2y agoI think they were likely referring to the behavior and not the choice of shortcut keys. On Windows, alt+tab switches between all open windows across a apps, whereas in macOS, you have separate shortcuts for switching between apps vs windows within the same app. Personally, I find the macOS behavior really irritating and unintuitive, but thankfully there are plenty of apps out there that solve this issue so it's not really a problem.
- shuckles 2y agoInteresting — I didn’t think about the difference and could see how it is annoying.
- hsbauauvhabzb 2y ago10 year old me didn’t know this. I’m comfortable enough with windows (and anything other than mac) that there is zero chance I’ll switch to the OS or their key layout, which I will concur is superior.
