I am a software engineer and never took a course on typing properly. As it stands, I can type 110 wpm with basically no effort. I use my thumb for the space key, my index fingers for letter/number keys (unless in normal mode in Vim), my middle finger for semicolon/period, and my pinky/ring finger for shift/enter.
I am quite fast and have good accuracy. However, I am worried that continued typing in this manner will result in RSI. I am also wondering if I will be even faster if I use proper typing technique.
Lately, I've been attempting to get used to typing properly, but it feels very awkward, I make lots of mistakes, and I feel like I will never be as fast. Most proper typists I know reach 80-90 wpm max.
Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Another problem is that my pinky finger feels quite weak, yet proper typing technique requires it to be used extensively, especially when coding.
