My introduction to ergo keyboards was not nice. Consider being kinder to newbies please.

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 mean you joined a niche community that will spend hundreds of dollars and hours building custom ergo shit then you said "fuck all that ergo shit" and the ergo nerds doubled down on it.
Either way, it's good to see these super awkward interactions on lemmy. Dive into your Errgo keyboard (that's intentional) and post when you've got it built. Follow through and you'll be a legend. If you go custom and need any modeling done, hmu and I'll do my best.
