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?
