Another 10+ year user of this reporting in. It's 10000% not the speed but the reduced strain. I used to get bad pain from typing 60wpm in QWERTY for 30 minutes.

Another 10+ year user of this reporting in. It's 10000% not the speed but the reduced strain. I used to get bad pain from typing 60wpm in QWERTY for 30 minutes. I can type 100WPM constantly for the whole day with zero pain since the days I switched in college. It took me 3 times to change, but once I forced myself it was great. Edit: And want to clarify from reading other comments: I was a touch typist on QWERTY, had the recommended posture, and even used ergonomic keyboards. The pain happens in your knuckles and back of your hand, not wrists. Zero of that ten years later.
