Not really. Ulnar nerve issues. I’m on the wait list to see specialist. Ergo consultants think my setup is spot on. Use Kinesis Advantage 360 Pro a Glove80 and a basic TKL at the moment. Mixing it up is best, but the TKL causes the least amount of pain heh.
I largely agree. I'm indifferent about the keycaps, but Glove80 appears to be doing better when it comes to a firmware UI. I really don't like the switches compared to my Advantage2 Brown's, and sometimes the halves get out of sync and just refuse to sync back up.
While I don't use the Kinesis Advantage much anymore due to my own personal RSI journey, I did use one for over 10 years primarily for programming. It did take a 3-4 weeks to get fully used, but then I couldn't imagine using anything else. I highly recommend that style of keyboard.
I also quite like keyboards like the Sofle, Iris, Lily and so on... A while I did dive into the 34 key space for a while, I do prefer some extra.
I tend to cycle keyboards, I find it helps keep the pain away. So I have a few favourites. I also switch between left and right hand for mousing or a trackball, which helps probably more than the keyboard!
