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

Hi,

I use an Ergodox and I’d like to get a keyboard that would best fit my use case :

  • alpha keys without numbers nor side column modifier (3x5 matrix for each hand)
  • 3 keys for each thumb
  • the inner thumb key should be compatible with a larger keycap
  • compatible with choc profile
  • pinky staggering more pronounced than the Ergodox (or the Corne)

I found the Chocofi that matches all of those criteria but I’m not expert, do you think there is something more suited ? Maybe a variation of the Piantor ?

Made me think of the MiniDox, but that takes standard switches. Someone seems to have made their own Choc version, but even then idk if the columnar stagger is pronounced enough…
