Language / What computer keyboards are in use in Poland? [34]
I wouldn't say so
Polish 214 is actually a very terrible implementation of the old Typewriter layout. Its resemblance to the actual typewriter layout is very loose and diacritic letters (ż, ń, etc.) are in a very suboptimal places. Only Ł and ą/ę are in the places, that typewriter layout used. Rest is completely janky. Why doesn't ż have a separate key? Why does ó/ż occupy the least comfortable to press key? Why there's no way, to type in capital letters except the Ł?
TBH, I'd really advise against using it, even the US QWERTY is better for typing in Polish. if you want a good typing experience, either use Macintosh Polish layout or Use some custom community-made layouts like this one: nowapolskaklawiatura.wixsite.com/main/
