     @rdmond and Outlook used Ctrl-F for Forward rather than Find because of Bill Gates apparently 😅 https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20140715-00/?p=503

     This is the classic article about how 90% of people don't know how to use CTRL-F to search a document, but it's 12 years old. I have not seen anything new on the topic. Does anyone know of a study of this closer to 2023? #a11y #KeyboardShortcuts
