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

Are you on Windows 11?

Regardless of how your touch typing improvement project goes, be sure to get a good mic. Voice typing has come a long way, if you work in circumstances where you can speak aloud. It's usually faster than my touch typing most of the time (not that I'm a blazing fast typist, but still).
