Best Barebones/custom keyboard if I'm starting to get wrist pain/tingling
Hey all, I type all day as many of us do and I've been finding some pain in my wrist and tingling in my fingers lately and want to know the best keyboard I can throw my favorite switches into and try to avoid/mitigate these symptoms. Hoping to keep it under $200 and I've never sodered before but willing to try it if the kits well laid out.

As others have mentioned, changing your keyboard alone is likely not enough to mitigate risk of injury.
For me, it was a combination of a height adjustable desk, adequate adjustable chair, a foot rest, setting my monitors to the appropriate height (as well as their arrangement), and an employer mandated ergonomic assessment.
The ergonomist did not have strong opinions on my choice to use a split keyboard but did acknowledge its a matter of comfort, preference, and overall how it fits properly into my workspace.
I definitely need to figure out how to get my monitor and two or three inches lower and 5 inches farther but other than a foot rest which I'd love I'm set up with a nice supportive chair and desk.
