> you'll have to unlearn your muscle memory of the Ctrl key
There is another option, which is to use Karabiner to revert to PC-like shortcuts. Learning the mac way is probably better if you plan to use mac exclusively, but I was triple-wielding macos+windows+linux for a period and I wanted my muscle memory to work across all of them.
Aren't a lot kg the mac ones just Command plus the same button ? My brain has learned pretty well to code switch between OS at this point.
It's actually really too bad MacOS doesn't have some of the windows key shortcuts like "windows key + arrow key". Would be super useful.

Right this way, sir/madam:
“Mac window tiling icons & keyboard shortcuts”

That moves the current window around between screens and multiple monitors and can maximise and minimise ?

Y'all really overcomplicate stuff. Redefining/switching cmd and ctrl is a basic and easy to find option in Mac settings.
You can't get from Mac-style shortcuts to PC-style shortcuts just by reassigning individual keys. If you swapped them then Ctrl+C would no longer emit a terminal break, for example.
