Regular Colemak everywhere for me, even on the phone. I started last year and it's a real pleasure.

Is there any benefit on the phone? Ironically I thought that having to alternate hands was better for a phone

On the phone Colemak can be annoying because it was created with rolling fingers in mind and you cannot do this with two thumbs. I'll have to try the swipinpg mode though with one thumb only.

But when I used a different layout on the phone, like QWERTY, it really fucked with my brain and it was slowing me down on the computer.

I'm happy now even if typing on the phone is a bit slower but I don't really mind.

I see, thanks
