Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
FYI: You can enable them in Gnome with Gnome-Tweaks. Apparently a very recent version of Gnome dropped this functionality for reasons that are beyond my understanding (but that's often the case when I look at the decisions that the Gnome devs make).
However, getting the Control -> Command/Super thing to work is much trickier. The best way is to use this: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail
However when I tried that, I ran into all kinds of weird behaviours all over the OS. Also, it doesn't work with Wayland.

Everything is gone. EVERYTHING
If the likes of https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/43 are still a going concern then it's not quite as "everywhere" as one would like, and I presume that issue is a fundamental one (i.e. it doesn't sound like XKeySnail gets first refusal on key events).
If you're on Linux, just get XKeySnail - Emacs keys everywhere.
-
Emacs + a nice theme + editing features is awesome! (plus some questions about extra configuration)
And I use XKeySnail to have the basic Emacs keys everywhere. I'm sure there are others, but it does enough to keep me happy.

Toward a More Useful Keyboard
On Linux, I use keyd[1] and while I understand that keyd itelf could never run on the Mac, I'd love something that could take my keyd conf and make it work (even approximately) on the Mac.

Remapping Caps to Ctrl + Esc
Using Sway means no Xmodmap stuff obviously, so I had previously used caps2esc: https://github.com/weirane/caps2esc and then switched to keyd: https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd

Any chance somebody here has bludgeoned the sezanzeb/input-remapper project on GH to work on void?
There are a lot of daemons for keyboard remapping. I use kmonad, but i was going to try keyd and kanata. Both kmonad and keyd are on the package repository. kanata is not. Kanata with the tcp server could be useful for non global configuration.
