Does anyone know if angle modding Graphite is okay? Because reaching M and P with my middle finger is just painful. Or if angle cheating on this layout has any major disadvantages because that seems to be what I’ve been doing
I am open to alternatives to Graphite as long as they are still very similar (maybe 2-3 keys changed)
Unless I’m reading the diagram wrong, aren’t you meant to reach M with your pointer finger not middle finger.
I read it like:
Light blue = pinky
Purple = ring
Red = middle
Orange = index
I think you might be mixing up orange and red
Take a look at this one
My bad I meant to say “aren’t you meant to reach P with your pointer finger” but when I looked down at my own QWERTY keyboard that is where ‘M’ normally resides so I said M in my message lolol. Still doesn’t address how you hit ‘M’ in the graphite layout with your middle finger but yea.
Did you opt for the angle mod? How did it go?
I noticed that both Keybr and Monkeytype have “Graphite Angle PK” layout, thought I’d give it try
Hello, perhaps a little late. Since the original question hasn’t been answered, I’ll allow myself to necropost. Might help someone in the future
Yes, modding graphite is totally fine. I’m using it modded (angle mod + CV swapped + KP swapped + [,./] block from QWERTY) since July 2025. I find it pretty comfortable. Here are the results so far:
