I think Qwerty is good enough once you practice a bit.

When I was learning to type for the first time, I had a rubber dome keyboard, a Model M keyboard from IBM, and a similar (buckling spring) keyboard from Dell.

I used two of the mechanical keyboards but I didn’t like those two. I gifted one to my brother and another one to a cousin. I use rubber dome keyboards predominantly. Of course rubber dome keyboards need to be replaced sooner than mechanical keyboards.

I also like laptop’s builtin keyboards, like those in HP Pavilions and Macbooks before 2015, but I couldn’t find an external keyboard of a similar quality and feel.

I think a full-size keyboard with a palm rest will work for you.
