Unironically the YT algorithm that pushed me into videos that eventually made me get diagnosed by a professional.

You watch one video about old people reacting to rage against the machine and suddenly all the recommended videos are by “reactors” that make $50k a month doing nothing but watching movies with their mouth open

That’s not a bad shout at all. It does hide æøå on weird keys though, would take a lot of practice to get used to that, but I’ll definitely put that layout into the layout rotation, thanks for the suggestion.

Shift+7 feels wrong for some reason, so I currently tend to just send my pinky on a kamikaze mission towards the numpad hoping I hit /. Sometimes I hit numlock, sometimes I hit *.
Even if I made a compose key “shortcut” via ~/.XCompose it’d still be more work than what I’m doing already.

Macro pad could be a solution, I have considered it beforehand for other purposes tbh

If you know what a nordic keyboard layout looks like, you’d probably prefer backslash. Since I moved to Linux a year ago I’ve been struggling to find the easiest way to forward slash. Shift + 7? Or numpad / with my right pinky?
