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 use my moonlander with the thumb clusters pushed all the way up instead of down or 'tented'. However this created some wobble so I bought an extra set of feet from ZSA and installed them on the outside of my board (there's already a screw hole there from factory, just need to take the cover off). I love it! I have small women's hands and no problems at all with my moonlander layout , cluster buttons set to my modifiers and space bar.
If you'll forgive my filthy desk picture, here she is:
Thank you for sharing and what a great looking keyboard!
I took a couple pictures to show my hand size and also the feet on the outside of the board (I realized the first picture I showed didn't have them installed!
That's very helpful, thank you - also neat to see which angles you've used.
I ordered my Moonlander earlier today.
Yay, enjoy!
