- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

Super + T in my case, but still...
(shhh ๐คซ, it's actually the win key, but don't let the Linux users hear ya ๐คซ)
Super + Enter ๐
Tiling manager crew checking in (I use hyprland btw)
I do ctrl + enter for terminal, with super+enter being used to launch emacs
โโ โฟโ โ The Win-key isn't real
For me it's the (custom-ordered) Arch logo key โโ โฟโ โ
Using it in Linux is a win.. HA!
Super key? Windows key?
Say what now?
Typed on my 1991 ibm model m keyboard
For me, it's:
mod + return
for terminalmod + e
for file managermod + r
for dmenu/bemenumod + d
to switch to the next empty workspace.All because I have to work with win10 workstations and using a different, superior shortcut scheme would mess up my muscle memory. Remembering to use
shutdown -s -f -t 0
instead ofpoweroff
is difficult enough, and don't even get me started with the audacity to usecurl
as an alias forInvoke-WebRequest
!Super + D for show desktop in my case.
"Win"dows key? More like... Lose.....key
So you're telling me you don't have a bunch of tux stickers?
For the key? No, it's not like I don't know what I'm running ๐.
Super + S for a terminal, Super + F for Firefox.
Why S ๐คจ...
Serminal
At the time I decided on it, I used Sakura as a terminal emulator, plus it's on the home row. I use a different term emulator now, but the muscle memory remains.
I have to confess. I had to look up the shortcut for terminal because I haven't interacted with a Linux desktop in years. I'm a Windows cuck, but not a total imposter bc I've kept a debian server running on my network for years. Whenever something breaks or I do an update (the updates are invariably the cause of the breakage) I manage her with ssh.
It's Ctrl+Alt+T on most DEs... but, that's way too many keys for my taste, so I usually just add Super+T as well (don't remove the default).
Super + E here
By far my most used hotkey in bspwm
