Thanks for that! Out of curiosity, do you use any of those alternative keyboard layouts?

I learned to touch-type Dvorak about 5 years ago and it's been fantastic. It takes a moderate amount of commitment to become proficient, but immediately more comfortable and natural.
I began learning Dvorak in 2002, switched to it full-time since 2004, and never looked back. The full-time usage was painfully slow for the first ~2 months. After overcoming the initial hurdle, I enjoy the smooth key sequences and the higher proportion of hits on the home row. I have a longer report here: https://www.nayuki.io/page/i-type-in-dvorak
