Gallardo994,

Can we stop opening help webpages each time i accidentally press F1 instead of esc? Pretty please?

When I’m playing Minecraft and the youngest cat wants attention, she always steps on my keyboard number pad and disables my mini-map. 😒

wookiestackhouse,

My oven has capacitive touch buttons for the clock and timer. They’re really sensitive, and they sometimes trigger even for skin underneath clothing. So sometines when I lean against it while using the stove top, I accidentally set a timer with my penis.

DudeDudenson,

I hate it with a passion when my phone wakes up the screen and starts pressing random buttons on the media player on hot summer days when I start sweating. I have to turn the phone around in my pocket but I’m always conscious about bumping into anything destroying the screen

troydowling,

When I hitbthe B button instead of spacebar on my tiny, touchscreen cell phone.

ImpossibilityBox,

oh man this actually pisses me of so much. I’ve been using the swiftkey keyboard long before it was bought by Microsoft, back when it was a paid app, and I swear it has gotten significantly worse at word prediction , key detection, and swipe accuracy.

I’m finding that I have to type letter by letter if I want any kind of garuntee that it will choose the right words. Swipe has become a waste of time because I am constantly going back to fix words it got wrong. And B instead of space is a constant!

dmention7,

For me it’s the period next to the spacebar. I think my right thumb comes down at just the wrong angle to touch both at the same time. One of these days maybe I’ll wise up and change the layout… but not today.

The Caps Lock key. I hate it so much that I took it off my keyboard completely. Been that way for over 6mths now. Love it.

turbowafflz,

I always remap it to be an additional super key so it has an actual purpose and I can more easily use keyboard with no windows key.

SEND_NOODLES_PLS,

It’s an ESC key for me personally. Some of my friends with the fancy schmancy keyboards have it so that holding that button down gives their keyboard an additional layer. Like, holding that down will make J/K/L/I work as arrow keys, something like that.

hinterlufer,

MrFlamey,

The button on my mouse that changes the sensitivity. It’s right on top between the left and right buttons, so it happens quite frequently. Maybe I should finally figure out if I can disable it in settings somewhere, but then I’ll need to change sensitivity for some reason.

Also, when I swipe back on Android and it takes me to the home screen, closing the app. When I swipe back on purpose I don’t even want to go back to the home screen, usually just the top of the app, or clear route etc. from Google Maps, but it’s even worse when I accidentally swipe. Whoever made that design choice deserves a kick in the groin. That is like the most single annoying thing about Android I can think of.

I cant remember if it’s Facebook messenger or WhatsApp as I don’t use either that often, but one of them has a button on the keyboard to send like animated images or something and it’s so easy to hit that button and then select an image but the problem is that it doesn’t add it to a message which you then have to send, it just sends it straight away. I’ve sent some really inappropriate things to people I hardly know as a result, and I don’t feel like the attempt at an explanation helps.

RisingSwell,

I, because on youtube that takes me to picture in picture mode and I’ve literally never wanted it, but it’s right about k which is pause/unpause

Why not use space for pause? I never use k.

RisingSwell,

Because I use j and L for back and forwards 10 seconds, so I might as well use k for pause and resume given its in the middle. Also often space will just scroll down the page, like how up and down arrows sometimes do volume and sometimes scroll.

kaktus,

Way to often the player is not in focus (mostly after alt tabbing) and space bar scrolls me one page down. Now I have to scroll up again and klick into the picture. Infuriates me just thinking about it.

radix,
@radix@lemm.ee avatar

I did notice that sometimes it scrolled down, but it didn’t happen enough for me to notice a pattern. I can see how k can be useful then.

if I slide my finger from the letter “q” on phone keyboard to bottom right, it’s an ESC.

some apps register that and sometimes leaves the whole page where it was

Kaiyoto,

The Insert key in a keyboard. I hit it all the time when I use End, Home, or Delete. I finally pulled the button from my keyboard.

hperrin,

Q in Minecraft. It throws whatever item you’re holding. Sometimes I’m frantic trying to fight something and I end up tossing it my sword. If it’s a zombie, they can pick it up and use it against you.

radix,
@radix@lemm.ee avatar

Yeah, I got annoyed enough at this that I remapped it to ;.

sparky678348,

I’ve had drop item on P for a decade now for the same reason

SgtAStrawberry,

Nothing like throwing your upgraded diamond sword, into your mob farm. Especially if you haven’t put in the droppers.

ExtraMedicated,

The “Post” button on Lemmy before I finished writing my c

@Presi300@lemmy.world avatar

C instead of V when I try to paste something… Like I’ve got something copied and I accidentally hit Ctrl+C again, instead Ctrl+V and now I have to go copy the thing I want to copy again (and then proceed to missclick again, it’s a never ending cycle)

isendmemes,

Use Windows key+v. It will show you all recently copied text

HerbalGamer,

well shit TIL, thanks

AtmaJnana,

get a clipboard manager app

iamericandre,

For work i have to compress files together for submissions and on Mac the compress option is right above the duplicate option, not all the time but enough times to piss me off I end up duplicating the files instead of compressing them.
