Has anyone tried Plover with Kinesis Advantage?
I love my keyboard, I am deeply habituated to use it and I tried many other (similar) boards, but I just don't feel as much comfort with anything else.
I wanted to learn Plover for a long time, but I don't think my keyboard is a good option here.
What do you guys think?
- Germanika 5y agoI haven't tried it, it looks to me like it doesn't support N-key rollover out of the box which would definitely be a problem. You can try it out but if you wanted to put more serious time into it, I'd highly recommend picking up something more dedicated like the "Georgi" listed here: https://github.com/openstenoproject/plover/wiki/Supported-Hardware#commercially-available-hobbyist-machines https://github.com/openstenoproject/plover/wiki/Supported-Ha...
- SudoAlex 5y agoAs someone learning stenography (but with a different keyboard) - try it and see, however your ability might be hindered without the right keyboard, key switches and keycaps. I bought an ortholinear keyboard with DSA keycaps to get started, which is absolutely fine when you're chording fairly simple words, however once I reached a point where words involved chording multiple keys from the top and bottom rows - it started to become a little bit painful. After switching to F10 keycaps [1], it made a huge difference in the enjoyment of chording more advanced words.
