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

About a year ago I finally took the time to learn it. Just make sure you know which finger should hit which keys. And then do a bunch of practice. My favorite way to to practice is Monkey type. Its all about the muscle memory. Doesn’t take as long as you’d think ether. About 20 hrs of practice and I was just as fast as I was before. Then you will start getting really fast if you keep it up.
