Wow, Penti is not easy I just realized. Especially not on a small smartphone display. It will probably take some time and practice before you can use Penti in everyday scenarios. But I like the concept and it's kind of fun to try something completely new. I don't like typing on smartphones with my big hands. There is assisted typing, such as Google's gboard, but that's a disaster in terms of data privacy.

Great!

I think the screen should be at least 6 inch for Penti to be usable
<taleon>
With my 6.1" display, I'm right at the limit. :-)
<abu[7]>
yes, a little bigger is better

I'm on a Fairphone 5 here with 6.49 inch

It feels a bit like playing the ukulele instead of the guitar. ;-)
<abu[7]>
haha, indeed
<taleon>
The only thing missing now is the loudspeaker output. :-)

I've sent a screenshot by Matrix
<abu[7]>
to show the finger positions I use
<taleon>
It looks very cool anyway.

My shakuhachi also has 5 holes. It occurred to me today whether it could also be used as an input method. :-)
<abu[7]>
Can you really play shakuhachi?
<abu[7]>
It is hard to get any tone out of it
<taleon>
What I haven't figured out yet, how can I cancel the input to be able to click up somewhere else?
<abu[7]>
You can type reset
<taleon>
I don't play really well. Only for meditative purposes and to find peace.
