The layout and default keymap[0] show this is really a very QWERTY-specific design.
I love small keyboards and am a Dvorak[1] fan, so tolerating such a layout will require some creative thinking.
I've purchased a PCB from SpaceCat Designs[2] and am keen on creating a Dvorak-centric keymap that chords the top two rows like the gBoards[3] Georgi[4], with the bottom rows dedicated as modifiers. Probably will give it a shot using the new F10 flat key profile from SP[5].

- 1MachineElf 7y agoLol. I get it, but I can't believe that's the best way to do it.

- 1MachineElf 7y agoWow! That is much longer than me - only since 2016. I had no idea the creator of Wordpress used Dvorak too. For me the gateway was the Dymaxion map in this XKCD comic: https://xkcd.com/977/ https://xkcd.com/977/
