  • I tried it for a while but gave up. It may be possible to get up to the typing speed of a regular keyboard, but it’s main purpose is to be less error prone than a more traditional touchscreen keyboard. Gboard and others use autocorrect to make up for how easy it is to misclick, but that requires large libraries and (in Gboard’s case) telemetry/data collection. Thumb-key’s advantage is it’s simplicity. It doesnt need autocorrect or predictive typing, because the buttons are large and the gestures are well defined and distinct. You should very rarely accidentally type the wrong character once you’re used to it. I never got over that hump, but I’m sure some others have and enjoy typing without looking like we used to be able to do on physical keypads.















  • Ask the union leaders in Minneapolis if “no one is doing that.”

    Minneapolis is where the George Floyd Uprising started. Go ask those organizers (who are absolutely active today) why “no one is doing that.”

    Just because you dont see it, doesn’t mean it doesnt happen. Its not the job of the resistance movement to look like what an outside observer thinks it should look like. Read radical theory and you might recognize the signs of radical resistance.
