I use Workman as well. I tried Colemak (a bunch of variants) and it never sat well with me. There are some words on Workman that hammer the same hand. "People" is one that trips me up sometimes that is very common. Overall, I like Workman too



Yep I know exactly what you mean. I just assume that other layouts have equivalent words that are strange/awkward to type; seems unrealistic that there's a layout out there that is perfect for every common word. In any case I don't stress too much about whether or not the layout I use is the #1 top dog. The main thing was getting off QWERTY and onto something else that uses the home row more, because QWERTY hitting that top row a lot isn't the nicest for my average-sized hands (i.e. the scissoring motion contributed to a bit of discomfort long term).
