Thinking about learning Colemak (an alternative typing system/keyboard design: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colemak). It does seem to make sense for me but it's unclear if I will improve my typing speed doing this.
I am currently using a QWERTY style keyboard (actually, the German version, QWERTZ). Currently, I am averaging 85 words per minute (wpm) on the basic English typing test on 10fastfingers.com (two tries so far: https://10fastfingers.com/user/3383669/).
This question resolves N/A (money returned to bettors) if I do not actually try to learn Colemak (by my own future judgement*).
This questions resolves YES if at any time before or by closing date:
I have actually tried learning Colemak.
AND I score above 85.0 wpm with an accuracy of >= 95 % four times in a row.
This question resolves NO if, by closing date, I have actually tried to learn Colemak AND not managed to score above 85.0 wpm with an accuracy of >= 95 % four times in a row.
*Guidelines for future me to rule "I have actually tried":
Needs a considerable investment of time and effort.
Tried to go cold turkey Colemak for more than one week and used no other keyboard design during this time (using keyboard > 2 hours/day): Yes.
Finished a Colemak course with > 500 lessons like https://www.edclub.com/sportal/program-90.game: Yes.
