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

Sunset Switches are Butter (self.ergomechkeyboards)

I received my Sunsets from lowprokb.ca last night and managed to install them in my ZSA Voyager today.

First impressions... these switches are LOVELY to type on. The original browns I ordered with my Voyager felt heavy, and tiring after longer sessions - not to knock on Browns, everyone has a different experience... but I am very happy with my purchase.

Yes sunsets are definitely my favorites as far as chocs go. Currently using a mostly Mx board but a few of the thumb switches are sunset chocs.

If I had to nit pick they are a little scratchy and having the tactile feel closer to the actual switch activation would be nice. But it's not like there is the wealth of options that exist on the mx side.
