Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, it just occurred to me (again.) The various “shift” keys on keyboards are a bit weird. For a couple reasons.
1) Why are they even called “Shift”? There’s no real time commitment, no work involved, so it’s, like, a completely different use of the word than work-related stuff.
2) How are you even supposed to train yourself to use them properly? I know that technically you’re kinda supposed to use them based on what side of the keyboard you’re wanting to shift (So, left shift for capitalizing ‘s’, for example.) But who does that? I normally just use the “right” shift. Unless it’s for “A”. That’s basically the only one where I use left-shift appropriately.
So, yeah. (I mean, seriously. I literally just used “Right Shift” for the “S”, even though I was actively thinking about trying to use the proper one.)
Have a lovely day!
