I learned Dvorak 30 years ago due to RSI, and it's a pain for reasons 2 and 3. Maybe 10 years ago I just dropped it and went back to Qwerty. Got RSI, switched back to Dvorak, fixed it.
But speed is just a matter of experience. I don't know if I'm faster on Dvorak, but a speed that is really hammering keys in Qwerty feels comparatively effortless in Dvorak.
- gilcot 3y agoSimilar here: Dvorak fixed my RSI. I think I can be faster on Dvorak because I type less quickly and with more comfort to reach the same level.
- rgoulter 3y agoEven without RSI, overwhelmingly the anecdotes about Dvorak are that it feels more comfortable. In terms of speed: I learned Dvorak, then went back to QWERTY. I returned to Dvorak a few years ago, and can now be faster with Dvorak than I was with QWERTY.
