Would you consider using an alternative keyboard layout such as Dvorak or Colemac? (lemmy.ml)

Dvorak and Colemak are designed taking English words into account as base to position the common keys in a more accesible way, where QWERTY has a more different approach.

Writing in Spanish using them is not more performant but the opposite.

Ooh, yeah. I forgot about that. 我经常得用中文打字 nowadays. Dvorak would be a nightmare for that, I suspect.
