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

Corne with Miryoku layout is amazing. So happy with homerow mods.
I can't find a good timing for homerow mods to work. Either it causes letters to show up when I'm trying to use them for mods, or it causes the keypress to go down as a modifier instead of as the key I wanted
I just used the standard settings that Miryoku comes with. Sure from time to time it miss clicks but it’s maybe 2-3 times over the course of an 8h work day.
yes the homerow mods are super cool. I would say the miryoku layout is great but I prefer to use it with qwerty layout. It is a little easier to get used to. It took me about a month to get used to the mod. but maybe I will move to colmak DH next.
In any case corne for the win.
I’m still using it with Qwerty. I don’t really type English at work and a lot of the other layouts aren’t optimized for non-English use. So I’ve decided to just stick with qwerty.
