Consider whether you can’t use your pinkies, or you just prefer not to (perhaps out of habit). Like are the switches so heavy that your pinkies have trouble pushing down the keys?
I use my ring fingers in for the pinkie keys pretty often, such as with Q, Z, P, Backspace, and sometimes A. For me, It doesn’t require a hand shift, just a slight rotation. If you want to use ring fingers, try rotating your hand instead of shifting it. I do it either because it’s easier to reach the key that way, or because I only use LShift (which I press with the pinkie).
Examples:
- ‘Q’ - Pressing this with pinkie requires me to essentially flatten my hand to reach it. That, or shift my entire wrist position, which is definitely not preferred. Using ring here is easy.
- Capital ‘Q’, ‘A’, or ‘Z’ require me to use the ring finger to type those keys when I’m hitting LShift with my left pinkie.
- Double letters, such as ‘pizza’, are easier to type with the stronger ring finger.
