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

    I was also going to suggest some form of “make it a game”. I think maybe even more important in the beginning, is fighting the urge to backspace and fix every typo you make. Doing this will break any rhythm you may have in the moment, and in the beginning I found making it through a practice session more beneficial than correctness. Leaving error also allows you to go back and identify keystrokes (or patterns) that give you the most trouble and let you then focus on them until proficient.

    Good luck!
