Re: System Monitor
This is something best left to individual users. I think the devs have more important things to do than set default keystrokes to the same as those in another OS.
Cheers.

Re: System Monitor
If you would really like that key combination to work for you, go to "Menu", "Preferences", "Keyboard." At that pop-up, select the "Shortcuts" tab, then click on "Add Custom Shortcut." In that pop-up box, "Name" it System Monitor, in the "Command" box type
gnome-system-monitor
. Right after that, under Keyboard bindings, double-click on one of the "unassigned" lines, it will open up to say "pick an accelerator." At that point, push on your Ctl-Shift-Esc key combination, and it should show up on the same line if the keystrokes were accepted.Custom Antec Outside tower w/Mint 20.2
