Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
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

It's not done yet, but I figured I'd show off a little bit since I have been using this for a few weeks now. This is the "swirl". It's heavily inspired by the helix with some notable changes:
I've been converted to the ortholinear layout since my EOTW Preonic, now I have that plus a Planck and a second hand Drop Preonic - but I'm interested in going to a split kb next.
This looks awesome, but may I ask - what function does the dual rollers serve? I get rotary encoders mapping to volume, but I don't know what two would be used for.
I use one for volume and one for scrolling right now.
