I'm hung up on the fact that the # character on a keyboard is not a "hashtag." It can be referred to as a number sign, hash, or pound sign, but it's not a hash *tag* unless it's *tagging* something in combination with an identifier. Hashtag is a software function such as it's used by Twitter/X, not intrinsic to a keyboard.
Just here to say that End and Home are two of my most frequently used PC keys. There's no faster way to get to the end or beginning of a line or a document (when combined with Ctrl), or to make a selection (when combined with Shift). I use these constantly when programming, word processing, writing emails, etc. Kind of shocked that someone considered End being infrequently used "shared truth" enough for a crossword. Our country truly is divided...
@Jen You're more correct than old though. The # symbol is a number sign, hash, or pound sign. It's not a "hashtag" unless it's used in combination with an identifier to tag something in some software app. On the keyboard alone, it can't be a hashtag. The crossword clue was wrong.
