The default config for sway refers to it (Mod4) as the Logo key in a comment. xmodmap calls it Super_L and Super_R with three different keycodes. I don't know if the extra key on the right is Super_R. i3 treats the left key as expected, but the right does something different. Ubuntu also treats them differently. I don't use the right one.
