A few days ago I started the search for an alternative keyboard to the common gboard. One keyboard that came up was Thumb-key. I find the concept of typing everything with one thumb really interesting. So I gave it a try and am using it from time to time (like right now). But the learning curve feels steep and I start to wonder, if this way of typing will ever come close to typing on a regular keyboard.
Is anybody using Thumb-key on a daily basis, and how fast can you type?


I’m using it! But only for a week or so. Definitely a skill and not something you can be fast on right away. I’m just getting to the point where I can type some things without looking at the keyboard. Was pretty slow at first, still a little slower than the normal keyboard. I seem to be still in the ‘rapid improvement’ phase so hopefully will get ahead of the normal keyboard soon.
