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

How do you click usually with these setups?
I use my left thumb and made the bottom right button left click and the one next to it right click
How is it? I'm building a Scylla currently, couldn't quite go full trackkeeb yet, seems like it's not fully sorted at this stage, plus I'm not full vim master so....
But got elecom huge currently to pair with the Scylla. However curious on your experience so far... Also maybe compared to a thinkpad trsckpoint.. If youve been there?
First trackball and it works pretty well! I had to learn it which took about a week but now works great. Attached it to my chair and now just lean back and use my TV sometimes to do work 8)
