Most people I've seen w/ long nails type with the pads of their fingers, with absolutely terrible typing posture. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 36 points 2 years ago (1 child) It' was a status thing.

So the rich in the past did that, and now everybody wants to do that so and it becomes a beauty thing. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago Everybody definitely doesn't. permalink fedilink source parent
