If you go any further down the ergo rabbit hole you'll probably end up with fewer keys than that though, typically 34-36 in total, e.g:

- memco 2y agoNiches inside of niches. I’m one of the few who enjoys a split ergo with > 60 keys and low-pro caps that doesn’t want to build it myself. The sofle choc looks promising as does the pinky4[1] if it can be made with all chocs. [1]: https://github.com/tamanishi/Pinky4 https://github.com/tamanishi/Pinky4
- nightowl_games 2y agoYeah I dont wanna build one either. Where can I buy this thing?

- memco 2y agoSadly, I don't know anyone selling pre-assembled ones.
- Alupis 2y agoHow are the rotary encoders, in your experience? From observation - the deeper down the split keyboard rabbit hole you go, the fewer keys there are. They all seem to ditch rotary encoders in favor of more thumb buttons.
- jhanschoo 2y agoI keep forgetting that I have volume mapped to my rotary encoder. I still use it as a button, albeit one that requires comparatively large amounts of force to depress and register as compared to standard switches.
- rcarmo 2y agoI decided to go all in and get myself an artsey.io Bluehand: https://taoofmac.com/space/blog/2023/08/08/1230 https://taoofmac.com/space/blog/2023/08/08/1230 And yes, I actually use it.
- jsheard 2y agoYou mentioned modding the switches to make them quieter, have you tried the factory-silent chocs which were released since then? https://lowprokb.ca/products/ambients-silent-choc-switches https://lowprokb.ca/products/ambients-silent-choc-switches
- rcarmo 2y agoNope. Had no idea they existed.
- tzarc 2y agoMy brain can't make low-keycount boards work, personally. Ended up designing a 64-key one with displays: https://github.com/tzarc/keyboards/tree/main/Djinn https://github.com/tzarc/keyboards/tree/main/Djinn -- can't see myself going any fewer than that.
