      why do you have a typewriter

      I mean they're cool but honestly I feel like composing typed documents is one of the few things computers are undeniably great for (you can make mistakes)

      Edit: I just considered how much modern printers suck and I maybe kinda 10% get it

        i used my parents' old one back in the day and it felt far more satisfying than typing on even a mechanical keyboard. also as someone with adhd, i think i would appreciate not having the ability to just alt-tab into something else if i was trying to focus

          just gotta go to the right thrift store, I see them still. But idk, my feeling was always "this is going to be too big of a project for how much I would enjoy it"

          fair enough! Hope it lives a long life without mechanical issues, that's what always scared me off. I do journal on paper for similar reasons even though I kinda don't like hand writing. Same reason I use an ancient beast of a printer when I do need to print and linux on everything lol
