Well I’ve found Mac key commands a lot more ergonomic since I can use thumb and index finger instead of pinky. I still end up mashing control c all the time in my terminal, but anything centered around the command key is way nicer. That said, inside classic editors like vi/vim and emacs, there are completely different copy paste commands that don’t use modifiers.
I copy paste a lot, but it feels natural- I also have to paste with modifiers a lot for things like “paste and match style”, paste as quotation, etc… a dedicated button would probably complicate that. Final thought- unless you move an existing button out of the way, a dedicated button would be hard to reach, where as command/control c/v are directly under fingers already.
Tidbit: some command windows let you paste by right-clicking the mouse in the window. They know we ain't typin' all dat shit
I think we should have MORE combination buttons! Typing should be like playing the piano imo
No, because ctrl is so close to c and v
Ctrl + Ins
Shift + Ins
Usually much easier than the usual combo
