Everything sucks without training.
I am faster on a touchscreen than most people are on a keyboard. I have seen teens who are ~50% faster than me.
It's just training.
- broscillator 3y agoWhy do you compare speed to "sucking"? I don't care about the speed or efficiency, it just feels terrible. On the other hand (on both hands ;) ) it feels wonderful to type on my thinkpad. I never compared speed or accuracy, it's just undeniably much more comfortable.
- simbolit 3y agoI don't think I will convince you, but that is training as well. Yes, in the beginning, it feels terrible, because you hit the glass too hard, but after some time you adjust your tapping and hit the screen with the minimal force necessary to register a touch. Yea, it will probably never feel as comfortable as your thinkpad, but once you get the hang of it, it isn't the difference between "wonderful" and "sucking".
- broscillator 3y agoWhat do you mean "in the beginning"? For how long do you think I've been using a phone lol? There's no convincing, it's like comparing old, low quality shoes that don't even fit you to my perfect pair of shoes. I can use all 10 fingers with minimal movement, I get immediate feedback, I don't have to hold anything. There's no training that can replace that. Typing on a touch screen will never not such.
