As a fellow traveller in "using Messagease since the Obama administration [first term]" I was pleased to find out that there is now an "english symbols messagease modifiers" layout that puts ctrl in south-west-swipe-south-west and alt in south-east-swipe-south-east

on messagease i would just do the ctrl or alt swipe then press a letter (etc) and it would do ctrl+letter, so useful for e.g. screen/byobu/tmux ctrl+a n without fiddling with special terminal app keyboards. also ctrl+a, ctrl+c, ctrl+v, ctrl+x, ctrl+z usually work in android apps and sometimes work better than the dedicated buttons for them

now if there's a way to get ctrl+alt on the messagease layouts would be a followup question, i don't want to learn a new button layout if i can avoid it, been using messagease since first term obama lol
