What is wrong with capitals?
- b20000 2y agoi don’t need them here, i am not writing a book
- ebcode 2y agonot wrong per se, but they take longer to type than lowercase
- johnisgood 2y agoWait, what?
- saghm 2y agoPer letter, capitalization doesn't take much longer, but over the course of an entire sentence or paragraph, having to reach for shift can potentially add up. Sure, it's still small overall, but I think it's reasonable to give the benefit of the doubt to a stranger about whether the extra effort for them to type them is more than the amount of extra effort for you to read it.
- johnisgood 2y agoIt doesn't take longer for me as I have both of my hands on my keyboard and I can hold the Shift without any delay (or noticeable delay), simultaneously. You could even use "caps lock" in which case you wouldn't have to use shift at all.
- bluGill 2y agoThe shift key is an uncomfortable stretch for my fingers. I can do it, but it isn't comfortable.
