Victor Mono Typeface
Julia has made symbol input manageable and lets you define infix operators for many of the Unicode symbols that make sense for that. [1] And JuliaMono was designed to support the symbols that Julia does. [2]
I generally do quite fine with my Compose Key configuration, though (even on Windows, where I use WinCompose). [3]

On Windows, I use http://wincompose.info/ for all my special-character needs (and use the system compose key on Linux).

I’ve previously used a nice little tool called WinCompose for exactly that. Looks like it’s still going:

How do you write a character not present in unicode?
I use WinCompose which gives me the same compose-key functionality that's built into Linux. I've chosen one key on my keyboard to be the Compose key (I use Right-Alt, but you can pick any key that's convenient). Then I can type

World’s largest battery maker announces major breakthrough in energy density
Assuming you are on desktop/laptop:
The long-winded way is to use your OS's character map tool: find the glyph you want there and copy+paste. Under Windows 10+ there is the emoji keyboard (hit [win]+;) which also gives access to much more including super-/sub- script characters, which is a little more convenient than character map. Presumably other OSs have similar available too.
Better is to have support for a compose key sequence. Usually build in to Linux & similar, you just might have to find the setting to turn it on and configure what your compose key is. Under Windows I use http://wincompose.info/ and there are a couple of similar tools out there. In any case it is useful for more than super- and sub-scripts: accented characters & similar (áàäæçffñ), some fractions (¼,½,¾), other symbols (°∞™®↑↓←→‽¡¿⸘♥⋘»‱), and configurable too so you can make what you use most easiest to access (and if you are really sad like me you can do something https://xkcd.com/2583/ to type hallelujah too!).

Shortcut for rotating canvas by 15° left or right without a mouse
I don't like using my mouse while drawing and I couldn't find how to do this anywhere, but luckily when I was about to give up I achieved it! So, for this you'll need a program called SharpKeys. You can download it here: https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys/

Caps Lock Behaviour Disabled in Gnome
Sharpkeys can swap keys, the readme says as much:
> Things that SharpKeys will do:
> ...
> Allow you to swap two keys with each other - e.g. you can swap Left Windows with Left Control and vice versa
I do have a vague recollection of Sharpkeys previously saying that it couldn’t, but that I tried and it worked. Long time since I last used Windows though.

Total Commander
> Total commander isn’t FOSS.
I'm aware of that. There are lots of FOSS equivalents, though. Including, I believe, on Windows. Wikipedia lists 23 of which I think -- haven't checked -- the majority are FOSS.

> Ironically windows 11 can’t do vertical taskbars.
True. Easily fixed with Explorer Patcher, though. Which, ironically, is FOSS.
> And where in windows can you change the system shortcuts?
I don't use it much any more and stopped early this century, so my knowledge here may be out of date.
When I do, I use SharpKeys to put a GUI on editing the relevant registry keys for keyboard remapping.

In the NT 3.x era, it was the properties of every EXE's PIF file. So I set Crtl+Alt+(initial) to open my most used apps. Ctrl+Alt+D for DOS, E for Excel, W for Word, etc.
This still works with limitations under Win9x through to XP, which is when I jumped off the Windows ship.
But mostly it's about learning the many many built-ins.

This application can be used to do that. You'll notice it can't see the menu key either if you try to autodetect it, so you need to set it manually. It's listed as:
