Ugh! KDE is so pretty and so configurable except in the one way that I really need: I need an easy way to set Emacs-style keystrokes globally. Do this and I’m sold forever.

(That aside, very exciting update!)

Is there anything like Karabiner or AutoHotKey for KDE that lets you download predefined keyboard shortcuts?

• Run `systemsettings5 kcm_keys` and configure or edit `~/.config/kdeglobals`, section `[Shortcuts]`.

Pretty sure you can customize what you want under the Standard Shortcuts and Global Shortcuts in KDE's settings.
At this point it is a bit of a mystery to me why something like AutoHotKey isn't built in to every OS.
This is pretty much the only feature I miss from MacOS.
