I have a Moonlander from ZSA. Flippin' sweet keyboard. I have a layer for mouse movement with wasd. On the same layer, I've bound hjkl to the arrow keys, so I can get vimish movement wherever. Below these keys on the same layer I have some browser navigation shortcuts. I use evil-mode in Emacs. The key below my left thumb is control on hold, escape on tap, and it works beautifully. On my left thumb cluster, I have a key that's option (meta in Emacs land) on hold, and option-x on tap (so I can easily hit M-x in Emacs). On another layer I have hotkeys to manage window tiling. I use Magnet for macOS; works fine for my needs. One thing I wanted that Magnet didn't have was a half-width-but-centered hotkey; I was able to build that into a macro on my keyboard. Keyboard macros are a beautiful thing. QMK firmware is the best! My layout: https://configure.zsa.io/moonlander/layouts/xK7zR/latest/0 https://configure.zsa.io/moonlander/layouts/xK7zR/latest/0

The Moonlander is great. I have Cmd+Shift+R (Refresh) and Cmd+Alt+I (Dev tools) on the two big red keys. On my navigation layer I have distinct keys for emacs navigation: C-x [, C-x ] (page forward/backward) and ESC f, ESC b (word forward/backward). And I have Ctrl+Cmd+Space (MacOS emoji picker) on a single key. My layout: https://configure.zsa.io/moonlander/layouts/4DrXo/XxmmW/0 https://configure.zsa.io/moonlander/layouts/4DrXo/XxmmW/0

  Oooh, the emoji picker is a great idea! I just added that to one of my layers. Thanks for the tip!

Do you ever turn on chip-tunes mode? The first time I did I couldn't remember how I turned it on. That was a fun few minutes

  I had that on for a minute to play with. There's a keycode called "Music Toggle" in the Oryx configurator. I don't think I have that on any of my keys right now.
