Love this. Both my reason for wanting to replace macos and my biggest blocker to doing so is needing a desktop GUI with some HIG consistency, which is apparently a very old-fashioned idea these days.

Really, anything that can adhere to the old-school HIG well enough to offer A) consistent keyboard shortcuts across the apps that B) use a dedicated, thumb-actuated command key, I'm sold. (The `control` key, and thereby your pinkie finger, should both only be used for sending terminal escape sequences, as god intended [1].)

Using my first mac for work, cmd instead of ctrl is actually the only thing I could get used to because I admit it's kinda nicer.

Gershwin is using the key next to the spacebar (whatever is written on it) as the Command key.
