Thumb, and I only use left alt (and left shift, and left control except for very rare circumstances)I also use that thumb for win, control, shift, z, x, c, v, a, s, and d...
And actually, heh, on Mac there is no Alt key
Pedantic semantics. I'm guilty of that quite often, too.I tend to use my right hand thumb on the "option" key and Fn key on my MacBook Pro, since then I can one-hand the combination I'm going for... I don't often use those keys, though.

I don't often use those keys, though.I'm noticing more and more that I only use my left hand for modifiers other than shift.Alt is mostly thumb.Ctrl is pinky or edge of hand.Win is dictated by what else I'm doing at the time.
Show Image:Djk, I use my pinky for ctrl, and thumb for alt. Winkey is no mans land.
I think I've really only ever pressed left alt and I use my left thumb. I'm just now starting to use right shift key as my default was left. Bad typing habits.

Bad typing habits.Not using right shift is not that bad of a habit - there are lots of very fast typists who will only use left shift as it is much easier to reach
Thumbs only for the whole mod/space row, except for the control keys which I don't use, because control is next to A. Mac user and Vim user.
How do you use shortcuts involving more than one key on the spacebar row then? For me, the control keys are actually very useful when editing text.I am also a Mac user and I use my thumbs for the command keys, my middle fingers for the option keys, and my ring fingers for the control keys. My left thumb also handles the spacebar.
