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

Am I allowed to just post my work setup here? Is that even legal?

Sorry, I know this is a late addition and unrelated, but I've updated my rabbit hole experience the last few weeks. I've seen the coiled cables a lot, is there some benefit to them?

Not really, mostly for looks. Some people like that they come apart in the middle but I haven't found that to really help in any way. At home I use a normal very basic cable. I had some rewards points on drop that I used for a few things and that cable found itself in my cart. I probably wouldn't spend much on a keyboard cable unless you want a specific look.

Makes enough sense, I appreciate the response!
