I still need to look at the keyboard while typing some things. Text is fine, symbols and accents not so much. Especially because I switched layouts recently so i’m still getting used to it.
I’d say if you are bothered to change and already working on it my best tip is to commit and learn touch typing correctly with fingeres on the home row and train the muscle memory. If you don’t, then I’d say there’s no real reason to learn Dvorak. The benefits only really shine when touch typing.
BTW for symbols I also Still have to look, but they never moved so even with qwerty layout visible I can just look ans find what I need. If you are using US Dvorak layout I’d highly recommend investigating if you can find and install a layout for your native language leaving the symbols alone makes things much easier
