Using #emacs has been hurting my wife's hands, and she has trouble remembering #vi commands that aren't :w and :q, so I suggested she try #joe. There's no GUI version, but she doesn't mind running it in a terminal.

She loves it. I've become rather fond of it for writing text myself.

@starbreaker I’ve been using a Kinesis keyboard for years and years. I find it generally comfortable but it’s especially nice for emacs. Repairable.

Or maybe I should look at joe.

@clew My wife and I each have Corsair STRAFE mechanical keyboards. I'm tempted to buy another to use at my day job, and use the included keycap puller to physically remap the keys for Dvorak layout.
