I am well and truly down the #ErgonomicKeyboard and alternative #KeyboardLayout “rabbit hole”now - touch typing this very slowly on a tweaked variant of the Hands Down Promethium layout which has R on a thumb key (which I started learning on a split keyboard), but directly on my laptop! https://github.com/peterjc/kana-chording-ke/blob/main/hands-down-on-jis-macbook.md #JapaneseMacBook

You can’t add regional format without also adding keyboard layout, even if you don’t need second English layout (who does?)

Why? Because it’s not YOUR computer anymore.

Thanks @rasie1 for the picture

Does anyone here use an "exotic" keyboard layout like Dvorak, Coleman, Workman, etc? Looking for some advice on them.

Since I never learned proper touchtyping and my home brewed method averages around 40wpm, I've considered learning and using one*.

Idea was that, with a different layout, I wouldn't be able to rely on keyboard labels anymore and that would force me to type properly. Goals are being able to type while only looking at the screen and working back up to my WPM score I have now.

*leaning towards Workman or Coleman atm
