??? You're just baiting now lol

Yeah it has its place. Just not in a Linux community. Is that hard to understand?

Except my layout (bepo) is not in any specific locale and was installed manually. So I don't think this would work

This is a Linux community. Not sure what you imagine most people here think of windows..

You can't delete the default one it thinks you will use based on your locale, and it reverts to the default on boot. Also has the worst shortcut to silently change the layout (contol+shift)

Personally on Mac I never had to change my layout again, and if I had to it's just an icon to click and it stays that way. On windows however, like you said, it's a nightmare

I absolutely hate that there are 3 ways to change my keyboard layouts. I very often hit control shift and since it's hidden that the layout was changed I wonder why the last sentence I wrote is gibberish...

Same with my Moonlander. Once I had it set up the way I like, there's not much to change, even though I get the itch sometimes.
I can't imagine going back or using a staggered keyboard anymore tho, my fingers hurt just looking at this kb

Dust?

Not sure about the latest Android version, but I managed to unlock and bypass a phone which had factory reset protection, and as far as I know a lot of vendors like Samsung have their own exploit available.
Using this you can manage to get to the settings app (while still locked, waiting for the previous owners google account) and remove the account, add your own or disable the security.
Done!
