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

All I am trying to say to the community is that some of your people are being dicks to people newly entering ergo land.
If you are a group and some of your members are jerks, is it ok since it's just a few?
The jerks were largely downvoted, what more do you expect of them? That's literally the mechanism for dealing with bad actors. No one was okay with it, but you're acting like they were.
The way internet messages hit, it doesn't have the same impact as a crowd booing a bully away in person. Downvotes are practically invisible.
I really do want the overall message not to be that the crowd is mean. It was more that my ask caused a conversation that had enough community action tha it caused a large conversation.
Imagine the faces as questioning? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
My intent isn't to attack. Just make fun of the commotion I caused.
