Please recommend an ergonomic mechanical keyboard
  • Ayy that was my post. I ended up going with the Moonlander and am trying out the Colemak-DH layout. Definitely not up to speed from my qwerty layout.

    I do really enjoy it though and have been tinkering with different strategies like tap-dance and home row mods for modifier keys.

    Ben Vallack has been a great resource in determining what's what in the ergo keyboard space.

  • Seconding Lutz's point! I'm a pretty casual player so I tend to focus more on rolling dice for fun and interacting with NPCs. Other party members actually will attempt voices sometimes or have more integrated back stories with the actual places in the campaign. It's definitely what you make of it!

  • What's everyone's thoughts on split or tented keyboards?
  • Interesting take on the gaming aspect! I've decided to try out the Moonlander and gaming is my main task after programming (sometimes before lol). Hoping the customization software gets me around some of the issues with having the buttons too far away.

  • What's everyone's thoughts on split or tented keyboards?
  • Interesting! I've dropped from the positive tilt that I had to flat/zero and liking it so far (could just be the change of pace though). Never thought of the negative tilt. Feel like I wouldn't be able to use the wrist/palm rest at all

  • What's everyone's thoughts on split or tented keyboards?
  • Yeah the split seems more justifiable but tenting seems ergonomic too. Curious at to if you leverage extra thumb keys or dynamic switching of rows too. Seems like it has a learning curve but I like the idea of keeping closer to home row

  • What's everyone's thoughts on split or tented keyboards?

    Looking for some testimonials on these setups as I'm due for a keyboard upgrade. I like the thought of spreading my arms a bit more and the external wrist rotation from the tenting. Any suggestions?
