I actually had to look at my keyboard as I'd forgotten there even was a play button.

My mac opens Music for func + enter. Sometimes I accidentally have the function button held down as I hit enter. Then whatever app I’m trying to use to type loses its focus to this app I never use.

Yeah but does your Mac have a key combo to launch LinkedIn? Windows +1, Mac 0

You close LinkedIn? ;-)

Is this real?!

yes hold down all the things on the bottom left of your keyboard on windows, then press "L". so that's ctrl+alt+shift+win+L

It's on F8 on my laptop... of course i only remember when i try to do something and end up with Apple Music.
