I have it instead of CapsLock, tab is too useful to forego.

But yes, arrow keys are too far, and I avoid them everytime I can, including in Shell

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, sorry. I have:

Esc -> Caps lock (useless so far away)

Caps Lock -> Tab (the most useful so closest)

Tab -> Esc -> second most useful

I had it for so long that I forgot which one is which :)

Imma throw another option into the ring which is Caps lock -> Esc / Ctrl. it‘s esc when tapped and ctrl when combined/ held for longer. veeeery useful

Sounds interesting. How do you set this up in Linux? I'm just remapping keys on X level now.

[-] TerHu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

I‘m sure there’s a good way to do this on the OS side, but I‘m doing it in ZMK/ QMK.

This is just for wireless? I still prefer to use USB. I will try to find something similar, thanks.

ZMK does wireless and wired, with a focus on wireless, whilst QMK has its focus on wired and i’m not sure whether it does wireless.

I got two Aurora Sofle (shoutout to splitkb for having good products and customer service) one wired with qmk (and MX switches) and one wireless with zmk (and kailh switches). Both work very well, but i’ve found that I prefer kailh switches over MX.

QMK is also used by folks like Keychron for their wired keyboards, and for gui focussed ppl it’s configurable via the browser app „via“.

Great, I will give them a try. Thanks. I'm sure one day I will have to evolve beyond just changing keycodes in X :)
