minus-squareAlbbi@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up28arrow-down2·3 days agoSuch an annoying kludge to make a common operation work.
minus-squarequeerlilhayseed@piefed.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up43·3 days agoMy hot take: cross-application or system-wide shortcuts like copy/paste should all be controlled with the Super/Meta key. Looking hard at you, alt-F4. App developers, you get your pick of Shift, Ctrl, and Alt modifiers. Super/Meta is for the OS only.
minus-squarebrisk@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up21·edit-23 days agoSuper is for my window manager. Which I guess is kind of where copy paste live so I’m on board, barring semantic nitpicks
minus-squareMountainaire@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 days agoAlt+F4 is for p|_|ssies. Alt+Space, X is the ergonomic way to go.

minus-squareSpaceNoodle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up17·edit-23 days agoPersonally, I think it was quite rude of all of those applications to make the standard “break” command mean “copy.”
minus-squaremacniel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up14·3 days agoControl commands are older than the shortcuts for cut copy paste though.
minus-squareAlbbi@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 days agoI got pretty used to CTRL-INS and Shift-INS for copy and paste. I don’t know if those even still work though.
minus-squareNotSteve_@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up10·3 days agoI guess I’m so used to it at this point that I just add the shift automatically and don’t really consider it annoying Such an annoying kludge to make a common operation work. That describes nearly everything in software, doesn’t it😅
