Hi!

Many mechanical keyboards are only available in ANSI layout. I've held off buying a keyboard because of this.

How have people here found moving from ISO to ANSI? Does it take long to say goodbye to the backwards-L return key etc.?

I move back and forth between the standards. My laptop and 75% mechanical are ANSI, my work laptop and Bluetooth keyboard are ISO.

You'd be surprised how quickly you get used to switching between them.

You're right, you learn fast.
