"On balance I'd rather avoid making a pinky key one of the keys I have to use the most."
And you use something else than your pinky finger for the shift key specifically when typing capitalized letters for camelCase?
- skohan 5y agoAt least it's where they sit naturally on the keyboard. And the shift key is wider specifically so you don't have to be accurate with your pinky when you're pressing it. The underscore is one of the least ergonomic keys there is. And you need both pinkies to do it
- daneel_w 5y agoI might be misunderstanding. On all layouts I'm familiar with the underscore key is directly next to one of the shift keys, or left of backspace. Neither layout requires the Vulcan death grip. Shift should always be under your pinky fingers to avoid contortions.
- skohan 5y agoOn the US layout it is next to the zero key on the top row.
