Who else gets frustrated switching between Mac and PC keyboard shortcuts? 😅
This is another niche tool recommendation. If you are in the similar position as me, you might be using multiple operating systems on a regular basis. I work on a Mac, but until very recently I was running my gaming rig on Windows, and I either dual boot or run VMs or WSL for Linux.
Several years ago, I got fed up with switching between Mac and non-Mac keyboard shortcuts. Even though I got used to Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V growing up, I quickly came to appreciate the ease of macOS shortcuts. And so, this brought me on a quest to just use the same key bindings on all my machines.
The solution: Kinto, a small app for Windows and Linux, is one of the very first things I install on a new machine. It remaps the keyboard so that macOS shortcuts work on another OS. It is not perfect, but it gets me 95% there.
I hope this is useful for someone else out there dealing with the same multi-OS headache.
