I was in a similar boat about 5 years ago: I couldn’t touch type, using some bastardized version of typing that saw me using two fingers on my right hand and three on my left. I was pretty fast (usually scoring ~100WPM), but always wanted to learn to do it for real. I ended up buying an ErgoDox EZ, set it up with the Dvorak keyboard layout. The first six months SUCKED. I was slow, and there were times I would have to switch back to QWERTY to handle urgent issues. But 5 years on, I’m a very fast typer again and I love the Dvorak layout. I’ve since picked up some other keyboards (including the Planck EZ) which are sometimes harder to get into, but I wouldn’t change learning to type the way I did. It can be done. It does suck in the beginning. You’ll get it with practice. PS I do recommend switching your phone layout to Colemak, and using things like TypingClub or KeyBR to practice. Best of luck!
