As someone who has had their hands on fire from typing, I’d personally like to tell you to shut up. You’re clueless.

Imagine a doctor with your attitude.

People have a real problem that no one has a real answer for. They don’t need to be told how much worse it could be.

I’ve got a GitHub repo where I catalog many RSI instances and treatments.

As someone who has more severe condition, I tell you you are clueless.

So here we are. You want to shut up as first?

I’ve dealt with the problem for over three decades. Never found a solution other than don’t type until the pain goes away.

I’ve put effort into researching it and gathering the data so others might be able to identify solutions that work for them.

I’m always looking for ways to “cope with it”. If you’ve got something that’s not on my list…

Thank you. That's what I originally meant. You tell your story. You offer stuff to others with same problem might find very useful.

OP did just whine about in a longish post, how bad it is and how low active that guy now is and so on.. that's public whining. One talks about oneself, do not even think of others - others like me or the other guys, whomever has something different than RSI and who would be happy to change for RSI.

... And then you have someone who is "loosing his hands" -

It's a kick in the face of someone who really lost his hands and now has to cope with a handless life, while the first person complains to not be able to type anymore.

That's what my comment is about. To be modest and think- and thankfull. To cope with the illness, but not to whine about it. That lets everyone feel better.
