What keyboard layout do you use? (sh.itjust.works)

I use Workman.

EDIT (2024-08-10T19:23Z): I should clarify that I am referring to the layout that you use for a physical computer keyboard, not a mobile/virtual keyboard.

The copy/paste ctrl-c and ctrl-v keyboard shortcuts are also a lot less convenient but I just deal with it.

Thankfully, these were only shifted one to the right in Workman.

It’s also annoying having to rebind keys in pretty much every keyboard-heavy game.

Yeah I've gotten used to that. I sometimes will do a software switch in the OS back to QWERTY if I'm playing games (my layout is determined by the OS setting rather than hardware) so that I don't have to rebind, but it doesn't always seem to work. At the very least, I don't think you can do a layout switch while the game is running. Some games also appear to intercept raw keyboard codes rather than what's being sent by the OS so they ignore the software keyboard layout anyways.
