From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hey there fellas!

As stated in the title I'd like to customise my keyboard layout, specifically, swapping the super and the control keys as I am using a mac (fedora asahi remix), and as such, it makes more sense to globally alter this instead of manually creating all the necessary shortcuts

In system settings under 'keyboard" there should be an "advanced" tab or something similar with a lot of these kind of settings, don't remember if this specifically is present or not. In case yours is not there you can change the mapping of the keys in a root configuration file that I don't remember, if you need tell me and it I'll go looking for it

xremap.

  • Actively developed
  • Works on Wayland and is DE/distro independent
  • Written in rust so it's faster and more lightweight compared to other similar apps written in python
  • Works on AARCH64 (not sure if it works on 16K kernels though, but worth trying)

keyd is amazing, wonderful, easy, feature-rich, and an absolutely awesome gateway drug to the addiction of perfecting your keymap!

Warmly recommended!

Also, well-supported by kind people :)
