I've been strumming with all 4 of my fingers kind of curved, but every video i see uses just the index finger and/or thumb. Should i try to train myself to change? Thanks
My personal opinion is that, while there's nothing wrong with the thumb strum, you probably would be well-served by working on your index finger strum. Mostly because that opens the doors to all sorts of fun techniques like "chunking".

Noob here so good potential for the blind leading the blind ... but I think it just depends on the sound you want to create.

When I first picked up a uke I actually used my thumb/index as if I was holding a pick.
jake suggests that way. isn't it on uu somewhere? hold your fingers like you are holding a credit card is what he said.
