I’m trying out the miryoku layout. Let’s see if I last more than 30 seconds.

    What would be a better layout? Only thing I can think of is colemak if you’re programming with the semi colon. When I do that I just switch back to qwerty, typing speed doesn’t really hold back my programming speed.

      Dvorak is kinda bad compared to other alt layouts. I think the original appeal was that it was built into windows. Or I just picked between colemak and Dvorak randomly lol. There’s a lot of math that goes into developing alt layouts, and a lot of it is personal to your use case.

        This is the first time hearing someone call it bad, do you have any links explaining why it’s bad compared to others?

          I don’t have any links on hand. I could probably find some later. It’s discussed on r/keyboard_layouts. Dvorak has a lot of SFB compared to newer alt layouts, and L on a pinky above S is kinda sus lol

          I should add that Dvorak is still leagues better than qwerty
