I map caps lock to esc with setxkbmap. Much more fun ergonomically.

I use caps for switching languages instead of alt+shift or super+space.

Very efficient thing when you need to use your native language and some code in one text message or code block.

Where do you have that running? I set it in my i3 config and it never takes properly on my laptop. On my desktop I ended up just doing it in hardware because it was easier

It works great in i3config but in gnome I have problems with it.
