@sysrq@kirby "if your tool is high quality and doesn't get in your way this is likely a sign that you are bad at your trade" has always seemed like such a weird take to me. why wouldn't I want better UX for something I do for hours on end? it's purely a matter of personal comfort at that point
that being said WTF is this about steno keyboards? that sounds like it would be unpleasant to use for anything other than stream of consciousness transcription. if nothing else how would you handle keyboard shortcuts and the like?
