I try to type the left option key and n for typing `~` on my iterm2 but it doesn't work. When I do the same with the right <kbd>Option</kbd> key I can type a `~`. After it I can type `~` with the left <kbd>Option</kbd> key until I have press the spacebar. 

My notebook is running Big Sur 11.5.1 and I use a german keyboard. My system language is english.

I'm total confused and have no idea why it's [not working for pipe and tilde][1] :/
