I briefly used a chromebook with linux on at the start of last year as a sorta dumb terminal to my desktop until I could get something a bit better. The keyboard was one of the pros, despite all the flex.
On my main laptop I now bind caps lock to super and, since it has an ansi keyboard and I live in the UK, I bind the windows key to compose. It has changed my typing significantly for the better.
I know they did, and I’ve only heard praise for it.
I’ve even remapped my caps lock on my Mac to be another modifier key. I can still tap it to toggle caps lock, but I don’t think I’ve ever used it for that.
Google tried that once, it didn’t go over very well.
@aeronmelon I hear it consistently praised as one of the best things in Chromebooks.

That is actually my favorite part of Chromebook keyboards (also, I like lowercase)
