Right or Left Shift Key

[deathbypapercutz]

This is interesting. I've never noticed this before...

When typing words, I pretty much always use the left shift key. However, if I need to type a symbol (like @ or $ or & or whatever), then I use right shift and use a finger on my left hand to type the symbol.

I think I use both.

Both, since I OH type a lot. Although during 2H I guess I use left more, since my left pinky is more used to reaching for keys like alt ctrl tab caps and fn.

My right hand fails typing xD I can only use thumb and pointning finger when typing with right hand xD. But with my left hand I use all my fingers xD so I always use left shift key.. xD

I'm a righty =D

 

[Provectus]

Righty.

Left shift for anything except question marks.

Depends on what layout I'm using. For Qwerty, I use Left. Colemak is use both.

Righty, Left shift key.

 

[jms_gears1]

Righty, and for the majority of the time i use the left shift key. Every now and then i use the right just so it doesnt feel left out and neglected

I'm a typing noob and I didn't even know that there was a right shift key until a few years ago. So I use the left for everything unless I'm OH typing and have to type a letter I can't reach from left.

Oh yeah I'm a righty.

I had to try this out while typing some stuff, and looking at my hands ...

I usually use the left shift key, and I am a righty. I guess I am pretty normal... (YEEEY, I am not a minority ).

I am a lefty, and I use the left shift key predominantly. I only use the right shift key when making the '?' character or typing out 'QWERTY'. Yeah, I use QWERTY. Get over it.
