Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Yeah, but it didn’t seemed as stable or well built as the Advantage. And for a travel keyboard it’s not flat enough imo. But I know a lot of people like it and I didn’t actually get a chance to try it. But the Advantage does feel very solidly built.
It feels a little bit flimsy because the palm rest is only attached in a small area. Adding an extra connection between some of the feet on either side of that connection fixes that entirely. I've done it with a baseplate and that allows me to attach hem to tripods, clamps, etc. too.
They could definitely be more portable though. I've just picked us a mutch smaller Geist Totem to those ends. I'm hoping to build it over the holidays.
I also prefer the look of the advantage.
Geist Totem also looks sick!
