I haven't yet tried switching to Colemak or Dvorak, but when I started to get real bad RSI I switched to a split ergonomic keyboard and it made a world of difference. On top of that, it helped a lot to adjust the keymap so the keys I need most often are comfortably reachable.
YMMV, different people have different conditions, etc.
- RealWittenstein 7y agoCan you please share your keymap customizations?
- alosarv 7y agoMapping CAPSLOCK to LCTRL is a common one to make CTRL+C/CTRL+V much easier with your pinky and not require bending your wrist unnaturally.
- ryukafalz 7y agoCurrent ergodox keymap is here: https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/ergodox-ez/layouts/yov40/latest/0 https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/ergodox-ez/layouts/yov40/la... Most of my typing is in emacs, so having the ctrl/alt modifiers on the thumb clusters was important for me; it lets me navigate easily without moving my fingers much. Redox layout (which is closer to stock) is here - this is for QMK Configurator: https://github.com/jfrederickson/dotfiles/blob/master/keyboards/redox/default_387bd55.json https://github.com/jfrederickson/dotfiles/blob/master/keyboa... Less customizations there, though I swapped ctrl/alt to match my ergodox layout.
