    Seeing people with respectable typing speed using just their two index fingers. What a waste. They could have been great.

      That’d be me! Over 90 wpm with mostly my index fingers. I do use other fingers for some keys (I always hit space with my thumb and backspace with my ring finger), but it’s mostly index fingers.

      Even if they were half as fast, it’s so much more satisfying when you use all your fingers.

      I remember day I started actually using my right pinky finger to press the semicolon. That’s when I became a real man.

        That reminds me of when I learned to touch type 3 years ago, I went from 30wpm hunt and peck to 15wpm touch type
        Now I’m at ~80wpm and my small brain coming up with words is the limiting factor haha
