What keyboard is that?
- graphe 3y ago
  If you're looking for the game ending keyboard you need this one. https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256803782645256.html https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256803782645256.html Any mechanical switch, on its own key mount moved on a split or single magnetic board. I suggest split.

    That looks amazeballs. What I wanted my whole life. Is it good though or is it impulse buy ewaste that just looks cool?
    - graphe 3y ago
      It is very good. USB-C as well. Here's some English marketing https://www.velocifiretech.com/products/dumang-dk6-ergo-v2 https://www.velocifiretech.com/products/dumang-dk6-ergo-v2 The magnets are not weak and do not dislodge easily. I do not care about any keyboards unless it's better than this one. If anyone knows a better one let me know! I think they said they're working on a mouse or something like other input options a while ago, but I haven't heard of anything new but I haven't checked either.

        Thanks. Can you also tilt the halves like a tent for ergonomics?

        I have them mounted to a chair I'm not by but I think so. Having a hot swappable keyboard I have them on the arms in a tilt specific to me. I was looking for an American clone but nobody makes anything this cool. https://dygma.com/pages/defy https://dygma.com/pages/defy This one isn't magnetic but it's wireless and it has a mouse on it. I love the magnetic and the tactile feeling as well as the ability to mix and match keys and switches on the fly. I'm not sure what the next iteration would be for a keyboard but I hope to see more ergonomic ones mounted on chairs.

        That page says the software is Windows-only. Is the software just for the setup? Or would this be impossible to use on Linux/Mac even after configuring it?
        graphe 3y ago
        It is just for configuration, I think there is a way to do it unofficially I didn't configure it on Linux but it was plug and play. Someone made this for Linux. https://github.com/mayanez/dumang-keyboard-ctrl https://github.com/mayanez/dumang-keyboard-ctrl

        Have you used the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard? I really like that, but it isn't mechanical.
        graphe 3y ago
        It's very nice, mechanical isn't always better. I really like the sculpt when I used it and if you're happy with it there isn't a big reason to switch.

    Isn't stenography the end game?
    - graphe 3y ago
      I wanted to like plover because I thought so too, but there isn't anything stopping you from using this as a custom steno either.

    Anyone looking for custom keyboard inspiration, look no further than https://kbd.news/ https://kbd.news/. I personally went for the Stront split keyboard. https://github.com/zzeneg/stront https://github.com/zzeneg/stront

    What's the name of the keyboard? I cannot visit this particular page, as the item is not shipped to Germany.

  Could be literally any tenkeyless mechanical keyboard, hard to tell from whats in the picture. I recommend a Keychron k8 as a good entry point if you like the format, been using it for a few years as my main one at home with a K6+little folding laptop stand for anytime I'm staying out of the house for any extended length of time. k8 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B5WHYTT/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B5WHYTT/ k6 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZT7W5FP https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZT7W5FP
