Dvorak
I started using the Dvorak keyboard layout in middle school. Here are my thoughts as a full-time Dvorak typist ten years later. Observations I’m not much faster than my peak Qwerty speed, if at all (≈110 WPM). This isn’t super fast, but my typing speed usually exceeds my thinking speed so it’s enough for me. My Qwerty speed has degraded (currently around 70 WPM) since peak (>100 WPM). This is not bad considering how rarely I use it....
