As an Emacs user I'm ALWAYS struggle to find a good keyboard for my setup. Actually I'm using a K550 Yama simply because it have enough extra key to have many things work's at a single keypress (and does NOT require any software to program/use those extra keys), I'd like some Maltron keyboards but they are (IMO) too expensive and without backlight, other "classic Emacs user's keyboards" feature simply too few keys to be comfortable.
Perhaps I'm looking for something like https://i.redd.it/z5knt99vpbsy.jpg https://i.redd.it/z5knt99vpbsy.jpg but...
A trend I noticed is however that substantially all new keyboards tend to have less and less keys than ever, while ancient keyboards tend to offer more keys in various fashion, like SUN type [67] keyboars or $I_do_not_remember with a full function key row + another S-function key on top etc. And that's IMO it's a bad sign: keyboards means production, mouses means consumption. Having big keyboard IMO means produce many thing, having mouse-centric UI means being a consumer of someone else service.
