Dvorak was designed a long time ago for typewriters, i.e. it tries to alternate hand movements, which some people like but many find it makes them slower.

Colemak is meant to be closer to qwerty and was designed for computer keyboards.

Then again I'm sure Dvorak is already miles better than qwerty and the differencesneith Colemak are minor. I think the reason I chose it originally was because of some youtube video but I don't remember what it was called.

Also I really like the Colemal DH mod.
