I did not mean this as a criticism, but more as a cry for help! I have worsening RSI but a massively customized keyboard project would be so incompatible with my job requirements. I just wish so bad that there were a sane middle path.
- dschil138 4y agoI totally get you. I think that exists tho! Someone else mentioned the Keyboardio100 which might work well for you. But I would also argue that it's totally worth learning a new layout. I think people overestimate how hard it is, and the difficulty of switching between them. If you have RSI, I would definitely recommend getting some type of split ergo board (maybe Corne?) and learning Colemak-DH layout.
- worthless-trash 4y agoHow would a keyboard layout be incompatible with your job requirements ?
- worthless-trash 4y agoI ask as this might be a missed sales opportunity.
- microtonal 4y agoGet a Kinesis Freestyle Edge RGB with palm rests and the tenting kit. Which is pretty much like any ergonomic keyboard, but split and tented. Or get a Dygma Raise if you want QWERTY row staggered, but thumb keys. Or get a Moonlander or Keyboardio Model 100 if you want row stagger. Or get a Kinesis Advantage2 if you want almost all possible ergonomic features (I had wrist pains and switching to a KA2 solved that completely). You can get some of there brands (in particular Kinesis) at regular ergo shops, so many employers will just see them as another expense besides a good chair or desk. (My employer bought me a Kinesis Advantage2 for the office-office.)
