ErgoMechKeyboards
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

I really love the look of Glove 80. But, tax and shipping to Europe comes to a really expensive package. But, that's more or less a perfect keeb.
The Glove80 Discord has a buy-sell channel, there are also regularly keyboards sold in Europe (which would let you skip tax). It’s also worth looking at local market places. Eg. this week I bought another good as new Glove80 from a Dutch marketplace for 150 Euro (admittedly, I got very lucky, but I do see good ergo keyboard deals every now and then).
Lucky you. I tried to ask what type of switches it had. But I never got any reply 😞
I eventually figured it out from the model type from one of the photos.
