But why is it not a German keyboard layout?

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 2 points 8 months ago

It is, I'm using it: https://www.neo-layout.org/

It is just not able to break the habit of typewriter compatibility.

They were asking why the heatmaps pictures in OP were not superimposed on a German keyboard layout.

They were not asking why no one has made a keyboard layout out of the heatmaps data :)

Just thought I'd clarify because you're basically having two different conversations at this point

Ups, I see my confusion. Thanks.

That one is fitting the pictures even less

German layout is QWERTZ while English is QWERTY and your neo layout is neither

I know, but it used the above heatmap to optimize for speed by putting the hottest keys for German on the baseline. It is not the standard keyboard, I learned to use it decades ago when I was a little German high school nerd and had too much time.
