How did these come to be associated with command-k and not command-p, which is the more common association at least for developer tools (chrome, vs code, sublime, figma, obsidian)? Command P makes sense since it is a Palette. Maybe it is just a weird quirk that all developer-facing tools use one binding while tools for the hoi polloi use the other.
Particularly offensive to try to name the whole concept after Slack’s default keybinding.
- treetalker 9mo agoI think most people associate ⌘P with printing.
- wink 9mo agoHalf of the things you mentioned only came out after 2014. My Chrome wants to print with Comamnd-P. But I'm not disagreeing in principle, I personally use so many of these fuzzy search things in so many apps, all with different keybinds (which is maddening in another way) - and maybe that's just the objectively most well-known one?
- n8cpdx 9mo agoYou’re right command-p prints in the common view, but opens command palette in devtools. That actually catches me out pretty frequently if I forget I moved focus.
