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 Spam

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.

I think a giveaway is alright, sale I'm not sure of.

To be honest a standard build like this from a vendor does not add anything at all. Since it's a very well known keyboard with a standard plate case. It would be a different case if this was someone's first build.

And as said the promotional posts got really out of hand in the old subreddit and after it closed it started to appear in picture channels of almost every keyboard related Discord server, where otherwise pictures of fresh and new builds would be shared.

I get that vendors want to promote, but only seeing the same type of posts and not seeing a single user build of one of their products raises a red flag for me.

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks.
