Hey, that's actually a very nice project, and to be honest, I can kinda imagine that the saving is minimal if there at all, in terms of time. Partially, I think this is also due to the fact that we are talking about super small amounts of time anyway! Moving files around I think it's totally fast with a mouse, and in general I still do it like that. For me speed is really a secondary thing, it's about ergonomics and limiting my movements. Chances are, I am already writing on the keyboard when I want to do something, so it might not be faster to switch to browser with mod+2 and back to terminal with mod+1, but it's less movement to find the mouse, rotate the shoulder (my split kb is open at shoulder width) etc. Also I think I would argue that requires less focus because it's inherently more mechanic as an action compared to find a button and click, or dragging and dropping something. Either way, it's for sure something interesting to look at!

Next time I’m around the family for awhile I wanna repeat it with a blood pressure monitor. I always feel more intense when using keyboard shortcuts, the question is if I’m also running a higher blood pressure when using them.

I could check with my fitness tracker, it has a "stress level". Might not be super accurate though.

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.
