Why QAZ? Aren't your brain looks for those keys on the left side?

I always found the idea of small keyboards peculiar; I always wanted MORE keys. Could you explain the idea?

This comment is so under appreciated.

OP had Gnome in the picture, the commenters used Unity.

Every time I think about my Windows installation I think about AHK and get a little sad. It's the only software I regret leaving. But then I remember my comfy i3 config, and get over it.

I think you *should* think about moving to more FOSS-friendly OSes, but in time, down the line, not this instant. Maybe the next devices you'll own, or when you feel ready, comfortable, with privacy; anyway, GL!

Other awesome FOSS (Free and Open-Source Software) lists for your other OSes (computer/tablet).

I'd start small, a lot of people would tell you to do some drastic changes to you life, but, like every other thing you have in life, start small, or you'll might fail.

I'd suggest starting here.

Shelter is better, BTW; but Insular is good option too.

If you don't want Google *device* you could get any other device supported by LOS but is means no official GOS on your phone.

To update your Play Store apps you can use Aurora Store (notice that Aurora *Droid* is completely different app).

Banking apps work great on second profile (user), you can use Shelter/Insular (accessible from the main user), or Android's 'Multiple Users' (which means to switch user).
