But why is it not a German keyboard layout?

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 4 points 9 months ago

It is, I'm using it: https://www.neo-layout.org/

It is just not able to break the habit of typewriter compatibility.

They were asking why the heatmaps pictures in OP were not superimposed on a German keyboard layout.

They were not asking why no one has made a keyboard layout out of the heatmaps data :)

Just thought I'd clarify because you're basically having two different conversations at this point

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 3 points 9 months ago

Ups, I see my confusion. Thanks.

[-] Aiyub@feddit.de 5 points 9 months ago

That one is fitting the pictures even less

[-] lugal@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

German layout is QWERTZ while English is QWERTY and your neo layout is neither

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 1 points 9 months ago

I know, but it used the above heatmap to optimize for speed by putting the hottest keys for German on the baseline. It is not the standard keyboard, I learned to use it decades ago when I was a little German high school nerd and had too much time.

A million words doesn't sound like a lot

[-] Deykun@kbin.social 24 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

To clarify, it is not the total number of words but rather the number of unique words considered. Imho a million of unique words is okay. A bigger concern for me would be that words on Wikipedia can be overly specific.

That million words sounds like a lot.

A source: https://deykun.github.io/diffle-lang/de?p=about-language (It has tooltips displaying percentages for other letters)

Anzahl der Buchstaben in einem Wort

(Number of letters in a word)

For this metric, Wikipedia might not be a representative dataset. Wikipedia uses many technical terms and composite words which tend to be longer than words that are more common in an everyday dialect.

There were some comments on Reddit suggesting that cutting the dataset at 15 and removing 40% of words was not the best move. I have locally built a version with the limit set to 30.

Great project! I really like your design language! Though it would be nice if there was a dark mode and if it supported prefers-color-scheme.

[-] Deykun@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

Thanks. It should read prefers-color-scheme. I have dark mode by default, but it's also possible to set dark/light mode too.

[-] d_k_bo@feddit.de 1 points 9 months ago

Oh, somehow I missed the theme setting. I tried both firefox and chromium and got the light theme by default despite having my system/browser settings set to prefer a dark theme.
