I've been using Colemak for a little bit more than a decade now. Super happy with it.
I switched while interning at a ~failing startup. I was a Canadian in the US, and had forgotten to plan to do stuff over Thanksgiving weekend. I had nothing to do, so I switched to Colemak over the weekend. I spent the weekend doing typing training videos, then spent the remaining ~1mo of my co-op term working (almost) entirely in Colemak. I wouldn't switch back to qwerty without a really compelling reason.
Years later, I'm super happy. I can use QWERTY under duress, but rather not.
- SkyPuncher 3y agoI’m in basically the same situation. The minor annoyance of key bindings is worth it for significantly reduced hand strain and slightly faster typing speeds.
