I generally use queer.
It's often used in the names of university programs (e.g. queer studies), so I think it's been pretty well reclaimed.
It is also intuitively inclusive of romantic minorities, which gives me the sense it will continue to be inclusive as the aforementioned acronym continues to grow.
An aside, I'm also all for reclaiming the t-slur (I am trans) but I don't use it unless I am certain the people around me won't be hurt.
Settled on it after 2 years of Dvorak, 1 year of Colemak, and 1 month of Workman.
Though, I mainly use Plover stenography when I'm working, Norman for gaming, and Qwerty on mobile or as-needed (e.g. other people's computers or while taking notes on my iPad for D&D)
