Never is a strong word- mine went away. I had debilitating carpal tunnel RSI, and with the right ergonomics (*) it went away completely in a few months, and no sign of it for the couple of decades since, still using a keyboard for most of my waking hours. I’d say time spent typing is much less of a factor than how that typing is done. (*) The first big fix for me was switching from a desk to laptop on a couch where I could change positions every few minutes. The short travel and light weight of laptop keys also helped. I switched back to a desk more recently, but I kept the low-profile light keys, and the general awareness of postural stress.
