I love this video so much, and your board looks amazing! I just linked it on the Plover Blog. Nice work! Also thank you for the high quality edited captions!
Amazing video! Where did you find those images with those stenography layouts for all the keyboards and that guide to the differences? I'm planning on creating my own, and I need to find a good layout to use first.
Awesome, good luck with it! A great place for a advice is the Plover Discord and the Plover website has guides and such about learning. A lot of great resources are in the video description. :)
THANK YOU for pointing out that stenography is not steganography! I see people confusing them all the time. Also, what switches are you using on your keyboard? They're awfully loud and look heavy as well. Please please please get yourself some more appropriate switches. Bonus points if you can somehow get your hands on some 20g springs and swap them in for that extra light touch.
No worries! I thought they look and sound similar so wanted to clear that up first. Haha yeah so the switches were literally the only ones I had left to use and they couldn't be more far from the appropriate ones, Outemu blues. If I were to build another I'd definitely use some lighter linear ones! :) Thanks for checking out the video, appreciate it!
According to statistics, the average humans speaks at 90-120 Words per Minute. Me personally, I write at 140-160wpm consistently. When somebody that learned stenography can type at an average of 200WPM, why is this even needed? There are also a few people that are able to type close or even more than 200WPM on a typical keyboard. I don't get the use of stenography nowadays, imho. I already wrote down protocols during meetings without stenography - word by word.
In court, people often speak far above 200 wpm. We also write punctuation. Our software gives wpm info as we write. Often 250-280+. Plus we have to quickly write Speaker IDs.
@@Kedi211_ in addition, it’s one thing to keep up with a meeting at 140-200 wpm for 30 minutes to an hour. Court days are generally 7 or 8 hours. Longest I had was 12 or 13 hrs. Stamina is a key factor. Even with regular or ergonomic Steno machines, the body takes a beating. Cannot imagine someone trying to do that on a typewriter keyboard. Steno machines are nearly silent too.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! Keep up the awesome work! :)
I'm impressed! It's always nice seeing people make steno content.
Thank you!
It's definitely not an easy thing to pick up and try but I find it really interesting!

@@FuzzyTekShow thank you so much for your help!!
@@HatefulEntertainment You're very welcome, best of luck!
I liked the Art of Chording online book for the basics
I attended a court reporting college. They're generally self-paced, and on average, you can graduate within two to three years.

I mean, don't mind my opinion. There is a lot of research done and a lot of work into this video.
