The best keyboard productivity I gained was remapping the CAPS key to do nothing in macOS. I’ve been considering remapping it to the `backtick key since I use that so much in Slack discussions and when writing documentation

I have it mapped to ESC.

I have it mapped to CMD. Quite a bit nicer than using my thumb for CMD

Mine is mapped to F14 in Windows, which is rebound to push-to-mute on Discord. Great for gaming. And yes, there are more F keys above F12.

Well, on most keyboards there aren't actual keys, but instead shift-F1 through shift-F12 produce F13-F24.

I know some people who map the CAPS key to Tab, so they don't have to stretch the pinky finger as far...

caps->control

did you know that c-a c-e c-n c-p c-d work everywhere in macOS like they do in emacs?

I used to work with a good programmer who hunt and pecked using his index fingers. I thought it was funny, but it drove the vim guy in the office nuts.

I refer to myself as a "six and a half finger typist" because I never did learn proper touch typing, but I can still type faster than most people.

I do use the Backspace key a lot though. :-)
