[–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de [S] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) Indeed, but it must be quite annoying. I imagine having to use my mouse with my left hand, would be really weird, not just because I'm not used to it, but because this is not my main hand. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Tywele@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago* (1 child) I grew up using it like that. So it's not weird at all. You also don't feel weird using cutlery in both hands, do you? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de [S] 1 point 2 years ago Thanks for sharing. I would probably feel weirder having to cut meat with a knife in my left hand than to pick things with a fork in my right hand. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago I learned to do some basic things like that with my left hand after developing chronic tendinitis in my right. Brushing my teeth or eating, for example. It'd be surprisingly easy if it was just moving the cursor, but it's so ingrained that the index finger does the main clicking and the middle finger the secondary key that I couldn't get used to it. permalink fedilink source parent
