Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

Firstly, I went to the old Subreddit and the last post is over 2 weeks ago. This community must be one of the first to totally abandon Reddit.

Secondly, to the point, I would love a premium ergo board, like the cornish zen. I see that Boardsource has an aluminum Lulu but its got about 20 keys too many for me. I'm currently using a Corne with 36 keys.

What are others thinking about premium boards? Or asked another way, what keyboards are you dreaming about today?

Holy shit that's beautiful. Do you have one?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've got one from the first batch and it's great.

Have you shared pics of it before? I’d like to see

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

here's a picture I took after getting it

It's a great board but sadly it's just been sitting on a shelf. I need a more aggressive stagger on the pinky.

My universe for an aluminum Swoop case...

Did the short trrs cable come with it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

no, it came with a longer one. This is some cheap one I found on aliexpress

Oh I dig it! How aggressive of a pinky stagger are you looking for? I’m currently using a chocofi but was thinking about grabbing one of those for work.

I like the pinky dropped .75U. I ended up designing my own keyboard to better for my needs.

Oh man, you made my wallet cry! I think this may be what I was looking for!
