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

I have the Kinesis Advantage2 keyboard and have used it for about 7 years now. I can't imagine ever switching to anything else. Why are you switching from something that works for you? Just like the Kinesis, any change to keyboard layout is going to take some time to get used to. It took about 3 weeks before I felt at home with the Kinesis.
I’m switching cause it now causes me great discomfort.
Oh sorry, I misunderstood. Keywell keyboards fixed my wrist pain, so idk about it causing you pain. Ask an orthopedic doctor if saline injections could help alleviate your pain. They help me and it only needs to be done every 6-12 months.
