Are you serious? arrow keys instead of clicking? let's take it further:
shift+arrow highlights letters
ctrl+arrow skips entire words
ctrl+shift+arrow highlights entire words
home/end jumps to start/end of line
ctrl+home/end jumps to start/end of text box
ctrl+shift+home/end jumps to start/end of textbox and highlights it
um, do you need me to explain what ctrl+xcv do? or ctrl+zy? or ctrl+asdwerfgop?
isn't this just basic typing? didnt yall learn this in the 90s??? how are you all on the internet right now
wait til you hear about how i swipe texted all this
They tought us on typewriters in the 90s. Wait until you hear about how I changed an ink ribbon, son.
They taught us on ink pens in the 1700s. Wait until you hear about how I etched on slate tablets.
I miss crunchy keyboards that fought you every time you hit the carriage return. These modern ones all feel weak and listless to me.
taught? Is spell-check your next epiphany?
Works with backspace and delete too!
pro tip: press backspace to delete the last letter you wrot
r delete to delete the next letter
I'm with you but the snark is a bit much
I'm not being snarky, I'm just flabbergasted. because of the platform we're on. itd be a lot less on a normie platform
