Are here Vim users using the dvorak layout?

I am thinking of learning (programmer) dvorak but I am way to comfortable with Vim. I think Vim itself would not even be my primary concern since one should not use HJKL anyway. But I also have these bindings for switching tmux panes, vim splits and windows in i3, etc .
I think Dvorak would be a great opportunity to finally learn touch typing but I fear that Vim is not compatible with it.

So what is your experience with these two? Does it work? Is it worth it?

    @Bitwise never learned to do that. And when learning a new layout I can force myself more easily to touchtype. My main reason to learn dvorak is that it should feel better and I don't need to move my fingers as much

    Well it’s been 2 months since I’ve been using dvorak, didn’t remap the keys, and I’m starting to relearn everything and get my productivity back, movement keys are well placed. Anyway, if you want to keep the same key positions, I suggest to change to keycodes key bindings (pretty sure it’s somewhere in the layouts, never checked it out)
