Good day to everyone except to the neo-liberals always btching about .ml being a communist instance, we don’t care about your opinions

Moving on, I got my first computer about two years ago and typing has been a pain, last year I read a post online about touch typing and I’ve been trying to do that ever since but switching from my “hunt and peck” method is quite difficult. Changing hand forms and trying to return my hands to the home format has always made me given up on touch typing.

I now have a lot of typing and note-taking to do and I’m trying to learn this, so I’m looking for tips and advices on how to make this easier

thanks in advance, pals

also, if you’re on linux and want to try this out, there’s this native app I’m using Klavaro. It is also available as a Flatpak

Practice I guess. I learned in a hs computers class where we had to do timed assignments, copying spreadsheets and transcribing speech and such. Hunt and Peck was simply too slow to do it, we had to learn our homerow to get a pass.

Also death to neoliberalism.

Thanks for your reply, my high school equivalent never had such, our computer classes were spent in front of barely functional monitors with MS word open as we learnt the “CTRL +” commands while never as much as touching the keyboards

thanks for your support
