Hey, I will move soon to macOS as my main os. I am currently using Linux as my main os and from what I know, macOS is similar to Linux. I also wanted to ask some questions beforehand: There are few cli package managers for macOS but which one is the best? Will it be hard for me to use macOS if I am using currently Linux? Which keys on mac keyboard work same as keys on windows keyboard?

Generally there are no shortcuts with option as the only modifier on keys that actually type characters (for this reason I suppose), usually command+option+something or non-symbol keys such as option+up. Use command+option+number instead.

Thanks for the tip, but I will not. That does not fit my workflow on linux, which is more valuable than the workflow on mac.
