I think the @ being a shift 2 would confuse me the most in the beginning, before getting used to it.
I'm a Brazilian web developer living in Germany for 32 years and actually never used a Brazilian keyboard. I may be returning to Brazil for a while, i don't know yet if I'm adopting the Brazilian variant or just keep using the German one.
Just keep using the layout you're used to. I'm Brazilian too, but I've lived abroad my whole life, and US layout is what I'm most used to (even though I've never lived there, funny enough). When I'm on other keyboards, I just switch the layout to US International, and stop looking at the keyboard.
Ah, interesting! I'd have guessed about a dozen annoyances before that one even came to mind haha. Hope you have a good time around these parts at any rate :)
Also, I'd never taken a serious look at the German layout but going by the truly wild differences there you may as well stick with what you have IMO, I think it's what I'd do at least.
I also never checked the Brazilian tbh. Guess I'll just check it out, if the opportunity arises.
Yeah, it's been a good time here - the pandemic and the inflation made things pretty difficult though, but i assume, just like the pandemic, everyone around the world is struggling with inflation atm.
