I use it to contol my OS, of course!

My superkey controls my OS (window-manager, music, launcher, brightness, etc).

My alt-key controls my tmux and browser

My ctrl-key controls the app (vim/bash/mpd)

I use it as quick launcher:

meta +

  • T opens the terminal
  • R opens the calculator
  • F opens browser
  • J opens my notes app

Edit: bonus points if you can guess where R, F and J come from :D

It's the R that I can't figure out

It is Rechner (German for computer or calculator)
