How easy is it to go back to using staggered keyboards?
I’ve been tempted to switch to ergo, but I’m worried about being able to still use laptops effectively.
Your brain is way more adaptable than you think. I go between 3 or 4 different keyboard layouts regularly and can use them all just fine. I think the secret is just to force yourself to recall locations from memory even if it takes a moment, only look up the layout if you are totally stuck. It’s also kinda fun to see how weird of a layout your brain can get used to. E.g. one-handed layouts, morse code, stenography etc.
