I have both a Kinesis Advantage2 and an ErgoDox EZ. I've used a Kinesis Advantage on and off for nearly 20 years now, and got my ErgoDox in 2020 when my Kinesis was locked at the office.
I think the Kinesis is better for my hands overall, but it is a fairly tall keyboard - the positioning of the thumb cluster is just better on the Kinesis. They both have good programmability; I like things about both, but the Kinesis doesn't require an external app to configure it. I think the ErgoDox is probably better if you like customizing things, but I miss the row of F keys.
I'm going to be switching to full-remote, and I'll probably set up my Kinesis as my primary keyboard, with the ErgoDox configured with a secondary machine I'll be using primarily for the music production I'm definitely going to get into any day now. The ErgoDox is definitely much more portable and I can easily fit it in my backpack on the go.
