I actually use the m-dash, when on my desktop. When using KDE it's "alt gr + -" in the German keyboard layout.
Took a look and the layout seems to have hyphen and en dash—default—for
Alt Gr + -andAlt Gr + Shift + -, respectively, on both my regular layout and the German layout on my machine (added the German layout just to check). I wound up using the compose sequence of three dashes, but would prefer something with fewer strokes (and may do something about it—maybe).Same. But what's Gr? I use Ctrl shift u + 2014
The alt key on the right side of the space bar has the letters "Alt Gr" on them

Cool, thanks!
I dunno, this sounded so badass. "Wir müssen tiefer gehen!"
