From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm very happy to report that I found a solution to the problem:
keyd
. It's amazing.GitHub project here
Credits for finding it
Instructions on the github project are crystal clear, but I'll leave some instructions below for Arch Users
yay -S keyd
sudo systemctl enable keyd && sudo systemctl start keyd
Now you can configure the
/etc/keyd/default.conf
file to your hearts desire.keyd
is very feature rich, check the man page to see everything you can do. You can even add layers to your keyboard. Very sweet.My personal configuration so far (I will definitely expand it later when I bump into more problems)
After editing
/etc/keyd/default.conf
make sure you runsudo keyd reload
