But insert is farther than shift :P

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

The better argument is that many keyboards don't have an Insert key. I usually use Shift+Insert myself because it's more likely to work on all terminal types, including Windows and Linux, but have ran into times where I just don't have an insert, like on my laptop and Chromebook. So yeah, I might switch to Ctrl+Shift+V as my go to.

It is but it's an easy combo on a full keyboard. On a laptop it may be a bit inconvenient I agree
