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

Very nice boards. I don't think I will ever go to such a low key count.

My main keeb is a Corne with a couple of keys rarely used. So I'm going to give 38 keys a try with a Totem. I think I can deal with 4 keys less but there is also the increased pinky stagger, splay, smaller Choc footprint, flatter keycap profile. Let's see...

Please link the control diagram so I can understand this next level minimalism.

A lot of combos, basically.

There is an example of config in the keyboard's repo. https://github.com/kilipan/teenspirit
