I’m starting to learn to touch type correctly on a keyboard, but typing something like :q with the pinky finger always feels so awkward to me. Is it worth using it?

    Not for me, but then again I have residual nerve damage in my pinky fingers from a case of meningitis back in 2004.

    However, I do still use my left pinky for the left shift key, and my right pinky for the enter key. At least those keys are big enough that the mild numbness doesn’t cause me to miss those keys.
