I guess some people spend so much time in Jira or whatever that they want keyboard shortcuts for everything? My company uses Jira and I'm a developer and I've never felt like “oh my god I'm wasting so much time mousing around in Jira”.

I use Jira a lot and... there are keyboard shortcuts. There are keyboard shortcuts for Confluence.

I did not know about the jira shortcuts until recently. Not really a huge deal for me. Seems like linear's are definitely better but shrug. Keyboard shortcuts are not the source of my issues (ha!) with issue trackers.

Confluence shortcuts tho. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in my company that knows them haha. Which says something about confluence for sure.

Jira used to aggressively interpret keyboard input as a stream of hotkeys which would result in entropy being introduced into your board. Latest redesign fixed that, but at the cost of being criminally slow.
Yes. Across all companies I’d guess 20% of what goes into jira effort actually aids development, with the remaining 80% primarily aiding people other than the developers to understand how the development is unfolding and will unfold.

Sounds like at some point someone set up a good system there.

It probably depends on setups, but at Robinhood, Jira would take 15 seconds to load a wiki page (any wiki page)
You’re lucky then
