I haven’t given up touch typing QWERTY letters. Basically everything I need for “chat” is on my base layer of 42 keys. On top of that, I use a system of 20+ layers that has become second nature to me. It’s really wonderful and I feel like the average person confined to a built-in laptop keyboard is missing out. I’m constantly mapping application-custom functionality to a 2-stroke combo (Emacs).

That being said, the most important thing is that you enjoy what you’re typing on.
