For me, it’s “Clear Storage”. Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I’m playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.
The “Post” button on Lemmy before I finished writing my c
When trying to hit the full screen button on YouTube and I accidentally hit the progress bar and it skips to the end of the video
I, because on youtube that takes me to picture in picture mode and I’ve literally never wanted it, but it’s right about k which is pause/unpause
Why not use space for pause? I never use k.
Way to often the player is not in focus (mostly after alt tabbing) and space bar scrolls me one page down. Now I have to scroll up again and klick into the picture. Infuriates me just thinking about it.
Because I use j and L for back and forwards 10 seconds, so I might as well use k for pause and resume given its in the middle. Also often space will just scroll down the page, like how up and down arrows sometimes do volume and sometimes scroll.
Going for tab and hit caps lock
Steam Big Picture mode.
Its right there right next to large mode, which you need to use to browse the store.
and every time, I hit big picture mode instead.
and have to sit through the stupid animation, then try to remember how to put it back in regular mode.
and I dont understand why they cant give us an option to disable big picture mode. Its only useful for a niche minority of users, let them have it without becoming a headache for the rest of us.
and make steam remember fucking window sizes and positions while you’'re at it, fucking valve. every goddamn steam update just makes the performance and usability worse.
Q in Minecraft. It throws whatever item you’re holding. Sometimes I’m frantic trying to fight something and I end up tossing it my sword. If it’s a zombie, they can pick it up and use it against you.
Yeah, I got annoyed enough at this that I remapped it to
;.I’ve had drop item on P for a decade now for the same reason
Nothing like throwing your upgraded diamond sword, into your mob farm. Especially if you haven’t put in the droppers.
The button on my mouse that changes the sensitivity. It’s right on top between the left and right buttons, so it happens quite frequently. Maybe I should finally figure out if I can disable it in settings somewhere, but then I’ll need to change sensitivity for some reason.
Also, when I swipe back on Android and it takes me to the home screen, closing the app. When I swipe back on purpose I don’t even want to go back to the home screen, usually just the top of the app, or clear route etc. from Google Maps, but it’s even worse when I accidentally swipe. Whoever made that design choice deserves a kick in the groin. That is like the most single annoying thing about Android I can think of.
The N key on my phone keyboard. I’m constantly hitting it when I meant to hit Space. So frustrating.
For me it’s “v”.
IfvI’mvnotvcarefulvIvgetvthis.
For me it’s the . In the browser on iOS. The spacebar shrinks and gives space to the . button that I then constantly hit by accident
Also, the P and M keys when I mean to hit backspace (I use an AZERTY so the M is at the end of the second row right next to L P and backspace). It’s like aah I want to delete the last character not have more Ps and Ms thrown after it !
When I hitbthe B button instead of spacebar on my tiny, touchscreen cell phone.
For me it’s the period next to the spacebar. I think my right thumb comes down at just the wrong angle to touch both at the same time. One of these days maybe I’ll wise up and change the layout… but not today.
oh man this actually pisses me of so much. I’ve been using the swiftkey keyboard long before it was bought by Microsoft, back when it was a paid app, and I swear it has gotten significantly worse at word prediction , key detection, and swipe accuracy.
I’m finding that I have to type letter by letter if I want any kind of garuntee that it will choose the right words. Swipe has become a waste of time because I am constantly going back to fix words it got wrong. And B instead of space is a constant!
The Caps Lock key. I hate it so much that I took it off my keyboard completely. Been that way for over 6mths now. Love it.
I always remap it to be an additional super key so it has an actual purpose and I can more easily use keyboard with no windows key.
It’s an
ESCkey for me personally. Some of my friends with the fancy schmancy keyboards have it so that holding that button down gives their keyboard an additional layer. Like, holding that down will makeJ/K/L/Iwork as arrow keys, something like that.found the vim user
My oven has capacitive touch buttons for the clock and timer. They’re really sensitive, and they sometimes trigger even for skin underneath clothing. So sometines when I lean against it while using the stove top, I accidentally set a timer with my penis.

Here, let’s forcefully open up Microsoft Edge regardless of what your browser is set to!
I hate it with a passion when my phone wakes up the screen and starts pressing random buttons on the media player on hot summer days when I start sweating. I have to turn the phone around in my pocket but I’m always conscious about bumping into anything destroying the screen
A refresh button when I’m moving around on a map with right mouse button (don’t ask me why it’s made this way, idk) and it resets all my work done on the map.
The Insert key in a keyboard. I hit it all the time when I use End, Home, or Delete. I finally pulled the button from my keyboard.
