- hadrien01 5y agoSame here. I've been using the Spanish layout for fifteen years now, and it's so natural to use with a QWERTY layout and diacritics even on uppercase.
- noname120 5y agoContrary to QWERTY-fr, you can't type accentuated letters directly with the Spanish layout[1]. I find that it considerably lowers my speed when typing French. I agree that QWERTY-fr looks bloated on the first look, but the position of keys actually make sense so it is super easy to learn. I recommend you to read the philosophy[2] behind this keyboard layout. What do you think?

- enriquto 5y ago> As a resident of France Yet your keyboard layout does not allow to type the characters needed for all the languages of France. For example, in Catalan we need "í". Unless you add all possible combinations of accent+letter, the asymmetry between the characters that are already composed and the ones that need AltGR is annoying. I write regularly in many languages, mostly French, and I hate the AZERTY layout, mainly due to it having (some) already composed accented characters.
