I made a special layout that follows dvorak and puts J = ж, x = ю, w = ш, c = ц and these characters go in logical places along the number keys: ы№эчёщъь I did all this to type bulgarian cyrillic, and discovered that the bulgarian layout is missing only one key that is present in the russian, but all bulgarian symbols are on the russian, so I just use the russian layout, and that lets me also type the "yo" Ё

I want to change to programming it using the compose key combos because then I don't have to change the layout as well.

Did you know that web browsers always leak your keyboard layout? I was typing since 2004 on Dvorak, leaving a more than distinctive fingerprint on web browsers. Even with all the antifingerprinting turned on, nope, they still confess your damn keyboard layout. So it's nice to now not be leaving that mark everywhere.

And yeah, I'm gonna have to reprogram my keyboard again so I can make all that easier.

I could never go back to qwerty, and with a pair of idobao 75s laying around I never have to go back to staggered either.

i would switch to something more efficient than qwerty if everybody else did. but i don't want to get used to a layout that is different from what every keyboard and laptop outside of my residence uses.

i don't even want to use 75% because it moves some of the keys slightly. i stick with TKL because even though it is missing the numpad what is more important to me is that all the remaining keys are in standard locations.

Well, I totally understand your thinking there but I just don't have to think about it any more. I can plug this thing into a phone even if I want to, and as I say I have two of them and they aren't that big.

to be honest 15 years ago i thought typing was on the way out with technologies like video and voice recognition on the rise at the time.

but somehow typing survived.

if i had faith in typing when i was younger maybe i would have done things differently but as it is i was unwilling to invest the effort into transitioning away from qwerty.
