I typically use my MBP on a dock with the lid closed too, because:

1. I like Linux and Mac is essentially Linix/BSD that "just works." After years of putting up with annoying bugs in Ubuntu and Manjaro, Mac has been a breath of fresh air.

2. I sometimes need Mac only tooling like XCode.

3. I don't like the glare on the MBP monitor.

I have a Mac keyboard, so the command key isn't an issue.



Using windows keyboard on mac is totally fine I think. How is it a big deal if just two key switched.

And the 2016 buildin keyboard is just bad. Lack of feedback and having low travel distance. You are going to destroy your own finger if you actually decide to use it as your daily driver.

I think it is probably even worse than a $30 keyboard you can pick from random shop in case of ergonomics. How come apple designed a thing like this. (Fortunately they regretted it now)
