important finger question

how many fingers do you use while typing? (on a standard laptop/desktop keyboard, not a phone)

wat

you use your left thumb to press shift???

that seems so weird

Like you move your entire hand over just to use your thumb when you can use 4 other fingers that are closer

What are you???
the palm off my left hand hovers over the ctrl/shift, so I just slide my thumb underneath my hand toward the shift and I press it.

let me enlighten you all on this matter (yes i'm very late to the party)

So I think I type quite fast (I've been told I do aswell), but there are probably a lot who type faster than I do. Over time I have sort of started to type semi-blind, I blame the internet and school reports for that.

Now, I had never really thought of which finger I use to type so I decided to check it out. On my left hand I use all my finger, besides my pinky (very rarely). The thumb mostly for pressing shift to type them caps. Now on my right hand I figured out I only use my index (on my left hand the index is most used also). I also press spacebar with my right index finger for some reason (occasionally my left thumb, but not when I'm trying to type fast).

I hope you all feel enlightened (and probably kinda sad that this thread did not die, but I had not clicked on this for forever so sucks to be you)
