For me I can't imagine using a physical keyboard with no arrow keys. I do know some people that enjoy using the 60% boards but, I think I would be driven insane. I am so used to control + arrow that I have to force myself not to type it on a Mac.

For what it’s worth, mac has [similar shortcuts for moving around/selecting text in a document](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201236).

Thanks for the link. I'll give that a read. I don't daily driver a Mac but, this is good to keep in mind when I help someone else on their machine or testing in Safari. I'll say I have seen a few odd issues with only Safari and they are getting more common.

I have arrow keys but don't use them. I tend to use ctrl-f and ctrl-b otherwise I have fn and h, j, f and l mapped to arrows. I've been using it this way for years and it works for me.

I'd rather have the index and middle finger keys work like a track pad instead of the bottom of the keyboard
