Why am I trying an ergo keyboard? Was starting to feel some mild hand pain, and I’ve never bought my own keyboard before, so this seemed like a good excuse to try something new.

Testing my typing

To gauge my typing abilities, I’m using TypeTest.io.

I’ll use a 1 minute test, simple word list, punctuation and numbers off.

Current typing speed

My daily driver keyboard is the Apple Magic Keyboard.

On TypeTest.io, I’m around 64 words per minute.

Day 1 typing speed on the Kinesis Advantage 2

This will likely be horrible.

… yes, it was. 12 WPM, 86% accuracy.

Can only get better from here!
