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

Interesting idea! Though it looks like the ones on the right hand side are struggling a little. Question, how to you like that particular thumb cluster?
I may need to rethread the right side. Not surprised by the flex though, was kind of planning on it with the rotation and tilt.
I tried the original dactyl manuform and then found this one (Carbonfette). It's a huge improvement for me. Splay on my hand is narrower and more comfortable.
Hey, nice design! Do you use something to support your wrists or are your arms hovering above your table?
I hover hand. Tried rests with the Ergodox a while back and it just felt constraining more than supportive.
