I’ve been meaning to move on up from mechs to ergomechs but the analysis paralysis is real lmao This one seems like a top contender though. You ever try anything else like the Dygma Defy or the Moonlander or anything?
No, this is actually my first split/ergo keyboard.
I considered the Moonlander as well, but figured I’d go straight for the endgame, haha. The keywells really work great. My hands are on the larger side though, so I can reach all the keys with ease.
Got to spend your money on something, right?
I figured it’s a tool I’m using for 8 hours a day to make a living, so it’s worth it to avoid more tendonitis/RSI.
Oh, absolutely. I agree with you. Cheaper than treatment and having to put up with pain and issues in perpetuity.
I don’t type enough, even when I do I don’t touch type properly (using ye old “blind chicken hawk” technique”). Thus, I can’t justify this for my situation.
If this is part of your job, this is value for money in the end, if the quality is there.
I jumped into ergo with the Moonlander about a year ago. I really love it personally. This one scares me but so did the Moonlander at first. But i chose that for comfort as well as for the design choices of customizability and supporting modding and things like that. But that’s where my value was. Just think through what aspects are most important to you.
Took me a few days to get used to the reduced keyset, but overall was very easy to adjust to. I mapped it very similar to my home keyboard (Maltron 3D).
A colleague just got a glove80 and I was able to type 70wpm after 5 mins with it. I think I’d have bought one of those for home if I didn’t already have a maltron.

I recently bought a ZSA voyager for co-working.
