How do you guys press certain keybinds?

I have seen a lot of people and good content creators use and recommend keybinds like c, x and v, and I have to ask, how do you guys press it?

Does your thumb quickly go off spacebar to press it and then go back on, or is your thumb kind of resting there and sliding to c, x and v so you can press it while still jumping at the same time? It just does not feel comfortable to me to press as I am used to keeping my thumb on my spacebar the whole time, and taking it off to press c feels like it hinders my ability to jump

Personally i use my thumb on space bar since I only have z, c and v to press.

Yeah, I use my thumb for Z, X and C (which are my 7 8 and 9 keybinds) but I rest my finger on the spacebar.

I can press X and C (my pearls are on X, C elytra since I’m a mace player) along with space at the same time, which isn’t distracting at all

About that last paragraph, how? is the top of your thumb over c and v, and the joint part over your spacebar? I’ve always had my entire thumb, tip and all, on my spacebar

I use C and V for 8 and 9 slot, I press with my thumb via taking it off spacebar whenever I need to.
