A few months ago, I someway heard of the Neo layout, which is designed to ease typing in both German and English, and also has more layers containing a lot of exotic symbols such as ⊥ (orthogonal to), ⊂ (subset of), ♀♂⚥ (the gender symbols), and the normal and zero width non-breaking spaces. Every one of the six layers also has three deadkeys, and there is a Compose system (on Windows and Linux), allowing you to set basically every Latin-based character. +Typing is part of our everyday lives.

It is, however, quite different from QWERTY (or QWERTZ, a version of QWERTY enshittified for German typewriters), so it requires a bit of learning, and my method, which I can definitely recommend: Go to a coding camp or hackathon, and write your code with that new layout.
