Hi!
With LyX 2.4, the shortcut for toggling emphasis will be changed
from Command+E to Command+Ctrl+E. I find that latter shortcut
quite hard to use (there is a reason why Alt+Ctl+Delete are the
"Security Keys") while emphasis is maybe my single most used
function with a shortcut (after cut, copy, paste). So, this
cumbersome shortcut is quite annoying to me.
Of course I can easily change the shortcut myself via the
settings and fix the problem for me. But I am wondering whether
there is a better shortcut for this by default. The developers
have not come up with ideas so far or do not see the problem as
severe. So, I am wondering whether someone on the users list has
an input on this.
As a background: In LyX 2.4, the Command+E shortcut is currently
assigned to set the search string on macOS. (A feature of macOS
that some applications support but I was unaware of previously
and I know no one else who uses it. I guess that is generally
true and why it took so long until someone came up with
introducing it in LyX.)
Best,
Daniel
Looks like no one came up with a similarly good shortcut as the
old one. That might not be too surprising. Unfortunately, it will
leave macOS users in the dust with the next major version.
I myself tend to set Ctrl-I for emphasis, which is what most
applications use. Of course, they mean "Italic", not emphasis, but
it's what I'm used to.

Interesting. And I like the idea of having cross-application
shortcuts. However, on macOS Cmd-I is "inset-toggle". Is it not used
for that on Linux by default?
Yes, but I changed it locally long ago. I think the current
assignment is mostly historical.

Would you mind sending me your user.bind file?
Attached. I think some of these are probably out of date, actually.
