> Mac, alt-minus.
I've been using Macs for decades; it's called the Option key; no seasoned Mac user calls it "Alt".
I know when a PC-style keyboard is attached to a Mac, the Alt key functions as the Option key. [1]
- Option-minus creates an en dash
- Option-Shift-minus creates an em dash

Mac since 1995 or so, pretty seasoned.
But I also have windows keyboards plugged in. Hard enough getting the ones I like around here without also constraining them to Apple's preferred symbols printed on the keys.
