Re:You're using function keys wrong by Eduard on Wednesday January 04, 2023 @07:03PM (#34253870)
In the beginning, there was the "super key" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_key_(keyboard_button).

Its purpose: control the (global) desktop environment (versus e.g. Alt/Ctrl/etc, which control the currently focused/active/local application).

Many "Windows key" shortcuts do desktop environment actions, hence the Windows key is the super key.
