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

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

At their site once it's out.
They also have a Discord where they give updates and answer questions.
I don't have a discord. My phone number is "not compatible" of whatever. I'm assuming it's because my provider virtualizes its numbers, and I don't think that discord allows virtual numbers. Oh well. I'll keep checking the site.
Ah that's unfortunate.
I wish the default wasn't Discord but it seems like what most do these days.
But I've heard they're also quite responsive over email if you have any questions.
I can probably send a request through the supporter's portal, but I don't want to bombard them over a case, you know?
There's a page about it now, and there's an option to be notified once it's out
Thank you!! I signed up!
