    that is pretty lazy, especially on a pc where if you’d just have the energy to move a finger over to the right side of the keyboard to tap HOME once is all it would take.

      Yeah, my right hand is on the mouse and my left hand rests on the left cmd/ctrl key to easily hit shortcut combinations. So it’s easier to hit cmd/ctrl+R or F5 instead of reaching across to the Home button with my left hand or letting go of the mouse with my right.

        I’ve had so many discussions with fellow nerds about the efficiency of hand placement and movement. Mostly they and I agree, but for some reason I’ve never understood, no one approves of using the heel of the hand for modifier keys, especially Ctrl. It doesn’t work on laptops but on external keyboards it’s always seemed the most efficient to me!
