    The shortcuts are bad at first just because they’re different, but once you learn them all, they’re way better than Windows’ shortcuts.

        From my experience, you can just get to where you want to get faster with them. The globe key is also pretty nice if you switch languages a lot like I do. (Yes, I know you can do this with 2 key presses on windows but being able to do it in one is nice.)

          Is there a globe key on Mac? I must have missed that one. I can see that being useful if you type in languages which use different alphabets but not otherwise.

          Even if doing a shortcut is barely any slower.

            Yeah, it’s the bottom left key. You can assign it to do all sorts of stuff (I think it’s emoji by default for US models). I use it to switch between Japanese and English keyboard.

              Ah, alright I have an fn key there instead. Which I actually prefer because sacrificing prime real estate for a language key seems like a waste.
