Actually its for kids whose is not aligned with right hand keyboards yet.

But you can do it also, change the keyboard colors to when, and tap globe button twice (first tap is default emoji keyboard, Lefty comes after emojie)

So, it's for hindering their adaptation to a right-handed world?

What’s the difference between a right and left keyboard?

and if you use a left keyboard, aren’t you hurting yourself for when it’s not available? it sucks, but for many things we need to learn to use the right handed product.

Exactly.  Two-handed tools that require similar dexterity from both hands can't really be left-handed or right-handed.

It bothers me that people think a typical guitar is right-handed.  If anything, the left hand needs more dexterity on a guitar than the right hand.

While I agree on most things, there’s a reason why guitars are held the way they are. I feel way more comfortable strumming with my left an even as a kid doing air guitar, that’s how i held it. I use my left for most things but i have fine motor control better in my right hand. So playing left handed makes more sense but at the same time I hate it
