I'm an idiot that trained himself to use caps lock instead of shift. I'm retraining my muscle memory at the moment and it's going well but caps lock for me is a key I used to use all the time.

Jesus. But how?! its so much more work, how did you think using caps was good?

but then again, i used bend my thump for using shift, which is even worse as i have small ass iso left shift and i only use left shift. I think it went this way because i felt very uneasy using my pinkie on the hard membranekeyboards iinitially used

Yeah i used to be quite good at this, it didnt really hinder/slow me when gaming, only when typing texts and stuff. But yeah doing it now feels atrocious, glad someone told me that my habit was stupid and i retrained my pinkie

I use caps lock at lock for work, but that's because I'm typing out a lot of acronyms and it's way easier to just tap caps locks for acronyms of 4-5 letters, then tap it again to get rid of it.
