I'm the opposite. I used to use ergonomic keyboards, including a Kinesis keyboard many years ago. It never solved my RSI pain.
What did solve my RSI pain was simple: posture. The height of my desk/chair/keyboard/mouse/monitor were not in proper alignment. Once I properly adjusted all heights the pain went away in weeks. I also got a tenkeyless (Filco Majestouch 2) mechanical keyboard, which helped for its form factor.
- hkmurakami 13y agoDo you have a setup guide you recommend that others follow, or did you do it by feel and what felt comfortable to you?
- Miyamoto 13y agoThis page kind of explains it: http://ergo.human.cornell.edu/ahtutorials/typingposture.html http://ergo.human.cornell.edu/ahtutorials/typingposture.html The middle image is how I used to be. My fixed desk was too high (even with my chair at maximum height) and so my arm/wrist was bent up. I then got a height-adjustable desk and a monitor stand, and I made my setup more like the top image. However, my monitor is quite a bit higher that what is shown in that first image. I look straight ahead and don't tilt my head down.
