I've gotten into touch typing 10 days ago after two decades of poor habits (I guess I'm what you’d call a gamer typist) I do really well when I have to copy words shown on a screen (eg on Monkeytype) but struggle when I need to type what's in my head

The keyboard does not have a significant influence on the typing speed That is proven by all the superfast qwerty typers on standard keyboards Also touch typing with 10 fingers is not needed for high speed So the point of being 25 slower is nonsense I am a strong advocate for touch typing and ergonomic keyboards and optimized layouts, but this video is misleading and not helpful IMO Also the statement that hands should be shoulder width apart is questionable That has advantages, but disadvantages as well mostly mouse use, which having that in the middle is not optimal IMO

Logitech MX Keys mentioned let’s go!brHonestly I am looking forward to switching to a split keyboard though Low-profile scissor switches have been my jam for almost 2 decades of coding, but I’m hitting a wpm wall and getting sore wrists at the same time It’s time to level up

Yesss this is genius give them pinkies a break 😭😭 I struggle so much with ctrl shift tab etcbrOnly problem is I would have to get used to this layout 💀

67 wpm, but the area in the center of my keyboard (B, H, Y, G) are less precise So the further away from the home row it is the worse it gets I also never use my pinkies when typing (they are mostly reserved to modifier/special keys) But at least it's touch typing - hopefully the Defy will force in some better habits that what i have on my keychron

There’s no point for a split keyboard to be staggered, it should be columnar

Are we gonna get different colours after the official release since you have a gold one in the video personally I would love a gold or red one !!! Tbh we should have such options if we are gonna be buying a product which costs between 400-700 dollars lol

Are we able to use flat keycaps with the defy or raise?

Can someone tell me what mouse is on the desk at the 3:40 mark?

learning to properly touch type made me realise how weird the staggered layout is

When some gaming device? Its a matter of taking a left side of any of your keyboards and adding a joystick (thumb stick?) to it There are not too much competition here - Razer Tartarus and Hori TAC Pro are the only ones left I own Hori pad And also two Saitek PZ31a which i've used since 2008 I can't imagine play games without them More people should move from clunky 3-finger-WASD control to thumb-only-WASD! You don't even have to write mapping software as reWASD tool is great for that!

Damn, my coffee is actually pretty cold ;)

This was helpful, especially the tip about the pinky pain I was playing around with learning proper touch typing with an alternative keyboard layout, and I attributed the pain in my pinkies to the layout being bad But I guess I'll give it another try!brbrAlso, what happened to Dominique's hot-pink mouse?! (Asking the important questions here!)

My take on touch typing: It matters if you can type at the speed of thought, this means you can put more focus on putting stuff out of your brain brbrIf you can touch type, it means that you can focus on the screen and not worry whether you've hit the right key It is like riding a bike or driving a car: you want to focus more on the road rather than the steering brbrBut the best outcome to touch typing is that you can get into online arguments faster and more efficiently

The video we all secretly needed 😂
Comment from : @staceyquick9374

will other key caps be made available later for the raise 2? i like those gold metal ones in the video

Touch typing and it's 47 wpmbrbrSince getting my Defy a few months back, I've realised that what I was doing previously wasn't touch typing (I used only index and middle fingers and thumbs, didn't needed to look at the keyboard)brbrBeen practicing touch typing for a few weeks now and I'm getting better
