I think having a split keyboard so my mouse can be in the middle would really help my comfort at the desk. Is there a style that doubles up the middle keys? My typing style means sometimes I use my right hand to hit T, left to hit Y, etc.

Is this a style already, or would I need to build my own?

I am completely new to this domain and would appreciate advice from knowledgeable enthusiasts.

    Accessibility features are for people with disabilities, not people who just want to do stuff incorrectly.

    People should be able to walk correctly yeah, but you’re asking for a wheelchair with 4x4 while being able to walk.

    Two completely different things and you brining up accessibility is quite frankly insulting to people with real issues.

      I see your point. It makes sense, but is framed as a “don’t be stupid just do it how we do”.

      Not helpful.

      Accessibility is about giving people access disabilities or not.

        Bad typing will lead to other issues, the best thing you can do is fix the issues.

        Accessibility is about fixing the issues before accommodating them. Your request and subsequent explanations for why is an insult to people with legitimate issues.

          My request for accommodations is an insult to people who need accommodations?

          I hear your words, but you do not hear mine.

            Your request to be accommodated while parading around altruistically about accessibility when it doesn’t even apply here, yes.

            I hear your words, and you continually insult people with disabilities by arguing accessibility for you “weekly cookie”.

              I am seeking out accessibility and that means I am insulting people who need accessibility? What evidence against me do you have that proves I don’t need accessibility ?

              Are only people woth disabilities allowed to be helped?

              Where is your anger from?

                You aren’t seeking accessibility. You’re using it as an excuse to not want to do things correctly.

                Your comments that explain why you want what you want?

                The answer to your help request is to type correctly, you didn’t like that answer and started arguing different pathways. People with disabilities wouldn’t ever need what you are requesting.

                How many times do I have to repeat it…? You keep insulting people with disabilities with your asinine arguments and examples. It’s embarrassing and you keep doubling down.

                  Not once have people with disabilities been brought up on my side. You are angry for something I never said nor did. I asked a question, you attacked.

                  I do not think our conversation will work. Have a nice day.

                    You are asking for accommodations while using accessibility as your excuse for not wanting to correct the bad behavior that will lead to further issues.

                    You are laughing in the face of people with real issues, but of course most people don’t realize this. Even with a mirror held up to their face and explained it multiple times.

                    You’re a terrible person.
