What's a legit way to learn to play on keyboard?

As others have said, it's practice. Find a set up you're comfortable with. For example, some use MMO mice, which I can-to get the hang of, some use keybinds.

I use keybinds myself- 3 bars Q-Y and 1-6, with Shift and Alt forms (had to remind a few keys). Extraneous non-combat abilities are on a side bar without a keybind, except for mounts and sprinting. Strafe and moving backwards with A,S,D and move forward by holding both mouse buttons down. Took me some time to get it down, but I've been using it for years.

I also endeavor to keep similar abilities between jobs in the same keybinds. For example, damage buffs between DPS bound to one set of keys, oGCD attacks on a similar set of keys. It's not always possible, of course, but it works well enough.
