I wish this worked. I tried it. The problem is pressing shift only modifies the keyboard that it is pressed on.

- Symbiote 6y agoI think that's the case on Mac OS and Windows, but on Linux you can press Shift/Ctrl on one keyboard, and a letter on another. Alt doesn't seem to work though.
- gurkendoktor 6y agoIf you install Karabiner Elements[1] on macOS, all modifier keys suddenly work across all keyboards. I'm using one "TKL" Apple USB keyboard per hand when I feel like opening my shoulders a bit. Took me all of two minutes to get used to, at a fraction of the cost for enthusiast keyboards. I wonder if there are any ergonomic advantages I'm missing out on. (Karabiner Elements is a great tool, anyway; I've been using it for a long time to map Caps Lock to something useful for programming.)

- CTDOCodebases 6y agoThanks for posting this! I had a split keyboard and typing on it felt so much better if not for the non standard stagger. I now feel less guilty for having two 60% mechanical keyboards. :)
