I’m similar to you. Used Dvorak for quite a while but switched back to Qwerty. I never really had any speed gains but I definitly had a lot of comfort gains.

Yeah, I tried a variety of Debian based distros to start my Linux journey and but eventually just settled on Debian stable and haven’t looked back.
