Am I allowed to just post my work setup here? Is that even legal?

You can but I’m going to be “that guy” and point out that it’s not really an ergonomic keyboard.

Orthographic is more ergo than not, at least.

Was going to say this. My wrists currently hurt but, looking at this makes me much more aware of them.

I’ve tried different wrist wrests over the years but I’ve found that having them floating is the most comfortable for me.

I’m thinking about building a split board but I’m still not sure what I’m going to do with that, more research is needed. For some reason I think I want to build a fully wireless corne with Choc switches but I see that the newest corne PCB is not really setup for wireless.

With a more “traditional” layout like this, most wrist rests do more harm than good. Raised (in relation to the keys) palm rests like the Kinesis Advantage boards tend to be better. I’ve also got kinda fucky wrists (injury and starting PT level of fucky) so, small keyboards without finger splay can be quite painful. I ended up needing to change to a Svalboard in order to minimize pain.

Corne is a fun one. If the PCB has a Pro Micro pin layout, you can swap that with something like a NiceNano (use Mill Max sockets) for “free” wireless.

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
