Super + T in my case, but still...

(shhh ๐Ÿคซ, it's actually the win key, but don't let the Linux users hear ya ๐Ÿคซ)

[โ€“] [email protected] 39 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Super + Enter ๐Ÿ˜

Tiling manager crew checking in (I use hyprland btw)

I do ctrl + enter for terminal, with super+enter being used to launch emacs

โ—‰โ โ€ฟโ โ—‰ The Win-key isn't real

For me it's the (custom-ordered) Arch logo key โ—‰โ โ€ฟโ 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 terminal
  • mod + e for file manager
  • mod + r for dmenu/bemenu
  • mod + 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 of poweroff is difficult enough, and don't even get me started with the audacity to use curl as an alias for Invoke-WebRequest!

Super + D for show desktop in my case.

So you're telling me you don't have a bunch of tux stickers?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

For the key? No, it's not like I don't know what I'm running ๐Ÿ˜‚.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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).

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Super + S for a terminal, Super + F for Firefox.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Why S ๐Ÿคจ...

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.

Super + E here

By far my most used hotkey in bspwm
