minus-square@graphito@lemmy.mllinkfedilink11•edit-23 years agoI learned colemac and can use it on par with qwerty but it just isn’t integrated as the mainstream: Search wouldn’t recognize the language if you chose wrong layout Shortcuts: everything’s nowadays designed with qwerty in mind, every alternative is awkward subsequently, vim is out every other computer is a struggle your computer is unusable for anyone else, including colleagues who trying to help you or loved ones who want to check the weather
minus-square@ttmrichter@lemmy.mllinkfedilink5•3 years ago+1 on the Vim thing. Holy CRAP was Vim impossible to use with Dvorak until I laboriously remapped every single god-damned key (and memorized the new key to functionality mapping!).
