You are right at all points.
It's a little cringe to, how it's said in my language, to bring your own sacred book into another monastery. It's cringe to want the same workflow coming from Windows.
Yet I find these little things being so useful they should've been borrowed. I don't know how tho. I have some experience with writing macros, but it's all so unnative.
I mean, I started out like that, too. Looking back, I do now think that I could have just learned it proper right away, but I also remember being completely overwhelmed at the start, constantly learning new things. So, yeah, I'm not sure, it's possible. And even if you don't end up using those macros, you'll learn quite a few things about Linux, so I don't think, it's wasted time in the end.
I wasted no time. In the end, I'm not coming back. And I'm delighted how good Linux gaming is right now. My only grief is Adobe bitching, but I'm slowly adapting to either emulate their products or to find alternatives and making them just a memory.
It's all for the better.
