The_Uni VS steno-dictionaries

For Stenotype I found a sub on reddit r/Plover And a youtube channel.. And a blog.. who also seems to sells steno keyboards..

How about adding stenokeyboards.com for stenography keyboards? (I'm the vendor btw)

I'd definitely recommend The Uni if you'd like to build one yourself! If not, there's a really nice comparison chart here

for these, where it says starter, you just press all those keys down, and then on the other side you press the keys listed for what you want. so for example, I can enter like ~104 symbols without moving my hands. the average sybmol layer has like 20. the crossplatform movement dict lets me move around much easier in any text field. (note that you don't really even need to know what the key names you are pressing are as its all a pattern) I currently have six other dictionaries that I use some of the time. you can see more here: https://www.openstenoproject.org/stenodict/.

any cli program would be very easy to add most of the commands to a dictionary if you wanted. for example, a basic git dictionary: https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/blob/mas...

plover has made using a computer much more fun. its a bit of a hard sell for a lot of people, but I recommend trying out some of the other dictionaries to see what you can do besides type words fast. its seriously really crazy that we are only pressing one key at a time using a keyboard.

In the spirit of reduction, I look another look at https://github.com/didoesdigital/steno-dictionaries/blob/master/dictionaries/dict.json. In the same way that I asked how many of the 128 left-hand (four fingers only) states are actually used by the dictionary, I can also ask how many of the 4 million available chords are actually used?
