> In the 1990s chorded keyboards were "popular" in regard to wearable computing. ... Obviously, a decade later with smartphones this looked pretty silly (if it didn't already in the 1990s) but some people really did think this was the future at the time. Well, we have portable computers with chorded key-sets now: we just call them handheld consoles instead. I'm quite sure that the button set on something like Valve's Steam Deck or ASUS's ROG-Ally consoles could be repurposed for some sort of reasonably ergonomic chorded-text input.
