Thanks! Due to how queueing abilities work in FFXIV, rotation macros ain’t a thing even on predictable classes.

I see what you mean with the number row. I also like to have F1-F4 accessible plus tab.

Good thing the moonlander is on the big side there.

Accountant here too (well assistant tax adviser doing mainly accounting) and I have the numpad on a layer on the right hand and often used shortcuts on the left hand. It is really nice and only took me like a week to get comfy with.

The extra shortcuts also help a lot, because they are hardcoded into the software and some of them are pretty dumb (shift+F8 and ctrl+numpad / f.e.).

One thing I haven’t seen in this thread yet is how lower number keys allow for an even split and this ergo boards that allow for better posture, especially for the shoulders.

Weird tangential question: what is the cutoff point for FFXIV for you and why?

I recently swapped to a moonlander and I feel okay with a gaming layer, but I also do not do savage raids or above.

While it might not be as much, it still will be something.

I work in a purely windows environment because our main software does not really exist outside of it. The hours of IT troubleshooting for the most inane things I see happening is a pretty penny as well. The newest curiosity is Teams killing my RDP session once it loads in the GUI and the IT team is utterly clueless why. It doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t happen to anyone else and the only way to stop it is to kill the process via taskmanager.

And while a government might not be able to go FOSS, there are tools for communication that aren’t built like Teams.

My SO is in a government job and most of their software is some adaption on SAP or similar. They don’t have any chat apps. They use mails or telephone. They do have Skype, but that thing is a performance nightmare in their environment so they only use it if they absolutely have to.

Same goes for stuff like OneDrive. Even if you could wrangle it enough that it fits data security laws, it isn’t something they use in their daily work.

I would love to go back to Firefox, but ironically Edge is better at syncing things regularly for me. And I need that sync so that I don’t need to have all the 50 or so tabs on my phone too.
