Re:I designed my own keyboard layout. Was it worth it? on Friday November 03, 2023 @08:05AM (#38127474)
Steno is so-so worth it. Its harder (but not by much), but actually is useful. I went full-time steno after three months of practicing.

Anytime you want to add new functionality to your keyboard, you just add new chords/dictionaries instead of physically having to add/move letter locations or add some insane layer system that only has one or two use cases. I don't know why its so hard to explain to people.
