  • DacoTaco@lemmy.world ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Yes, because in french you need the special characters more often than numbers

      no, I don’t think we need & more often than we need 1

      and for accents, the canadian french qwerty keyboard handles them just fine; é (by far the most common accented letter) has its own key, all the other use dedicated dead keys. it works well!

      and you can write accented uppercase letters using the CF qwerty, on azerty you need a combination with AltGr for that (because using just shift types the numbers…)

  It’s great in mobas where skills are universally referred to by their default binding on qwerty (since most layouts have qwer on those keys). So sometimes unaware french people talk about their a and z skills and everyone else is just confused
