Don't listen to that man.
Go and try one of those first. I have been touch-typing for years, and the only thing I really, really like in a keyboard in the end is 1) knowing when I pushed a key or not, 2) flat fucking keys with distances between them and short travel.
So you might not like those curvy keyboards at all. I know I don't.
- incepted 11y agoNone of what you say invalidates what I said. You like typing on regular keyboards, fine. But you're killing your wrists and tendons one day at a time. There are plenty of varieties of ergonomic keyboards, pretty sure you will eventually find one you'll like, especially if you give yourself some time to adjust.
- godDLL 11y agoI have had a look at the popular five-or-so, and really, no adjusting is going to get around the fact that I didn't like typing on any of them more than I like a flat, spacey key design with short travel. And "regular keyboards" are a nightmare. They don't push your finger back when they activate. I can sure understand where you're coming from, because I too have had the experience of being frustrated with a keyboard to the point where my wrists hurt all the time and I just avoid typing until I get to use something passable. It's just that what's considered "ergonomic" is tied directly to the usage case. Many people won't find what you found where you looked for it.
