Just wanted to share some observations about my learning process to see if anyone else has experienced them, too.
I must say I haven't done any proper lessons yet. Just switching cold turkey for some minutes per day from my usual 60 WPM QWERTY typing. I'll be training myself more properly after I'm not so busy.
- Easiest keys to get used to (apart from those that don't change of course) are the ones where only the rows are switched, particularly to the home row. T and N were simply a breeze to get accustomed to in the new layout (not without a few mistakes when I get carried away and try to type too quickly, when I instinctively switch to QWERTY)
- Hardest keys have been surprisingly the ones that are switched to an adjacent finger. I find myself often struggling to get S right, for instance, often hitting R inrtead ;) I and O have been also challenging, though perhaps a bit less due to the "upgrade" in row. D has somehow not fared too badly in some cases (like -ed's) but not others
- Same finger row downgrades are harder to get used to than hand changes. I'm handling Ps and Es better than I am handling Gs, for instance.
- Js and Fs are arguably my slowest keys due to their low use, but S likely takes the highest error rate, considering how often it gets used
Anyway, that's it for my daily practice today. Post proudly typed very, very slowly and with lots of corrections on Colemak layout (good thing we have two backspaces now, use them plenty!) :)
