Actually yeah, the books reads that I should play the major chords with my thumb, middle, and pinky, but I often use my ring finger instead of my pinky, should I force myself to use my pinky, or will this not really hinder me.

It will probably hinder you because some songs may require a switch to using the ring finger after playing a chord (sounds weird when talking about pianos).
Just use your pinky, get used to it, it'll be better in teh long run.

As long as you know what key you are pressing with which finger...
I mean, I don't type how they taught me in school, and i typper fien.
Hello noob who quoted me trying to point out the fail.

Pretty much this. It will make chord transition easier.

Playing piano =/= same as typing.
In the books, they give you specific fingers to put on each key to make it easier for you to play.

I know. I play the piano and I don't press some keys with the finger the book tells me to. Also, some books teach different fingering. But imho, unless you're gonna go professional or teach piano...
