not really. It's faster while writing it sometimes. But if you factor in the time it takes to try reading it a year later you end up with a net loss
I disagree. I grew up in the 80s and 90s, and I had to read cursive all the time, since my boomer parents used it constantly. When you read it regularly, it doesn't take any longer to read than block letters.
I never used cursive because I never got into enough of a habit of using it before technology made the skillset unnecessary. I think I write down one thing a month? if that? I use computers the rest of the time, whether it's the small rectangle that fits in my pocket, the larger folding rectangle that goes in my backpack, or the larger cube like one that sits under my desk at home.... I use computers about 1000x more than a pen.
That doesn't change the fact that I can look at cursive and know what it says as instantly as if it were typed text. Me not being able to, or simply not writing cursive is entirely a me problem.
