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

Hey guys, not sure if we do PCB reviews in this group, but I figured I'd give it a shot since I know it was a thing that happened over in the bad website.
It's essentially a 5x6+1+encoder board. Images below and open source hardware repo is linked.

This is baby's first PCB design, so feel free to tear me a new one in the comments so I can make good boards.
I really only glanced at the routing but be sure to run DRC! Looks like a fun board.
Thanks for the tip! Looks like it's all "holes colocated"...thanks reversible footprints.
