I went a little overboard with fountain pen ink a few years back and stopped using fountain pens until recently. I'm left handed, but my wrist placement (underhanded) doesn't cause any problems with ink smear. I found that using them for notes and summaries "slows me down" and I process information better. YMMV.

I use the Herbin ballpoint for quick notes and I really like it. For longer sessions, I'll whip up a Pilot Vanishing Point as I find that the added flex causes less fatigue. I also ordered Yookers felt tip pens that takes FP ink (https://yookers-shop.com/). I love the Sharpie pens, so if they feel the same, I might just hoard them and slowly empty my ink collection.
