You will encounter this man at work.

They will ask for your help with something on their workstation, and it would be faster for you to drive with them watching over your shoulder, but this cryptic thing is their keyboard.

Instead, you will be forced to sit behind them like Patrick Swayze guiding Demi Moore at a throwing wheel. You will eventually take your shirt off, launch Unchained Melody in Spotify, then slowly guide them through a system setting panel.

You will notice how soft their hands feel. The hyper-ergonomic keyboard has allowed their fingers to move with minimal effort, allowing the skin to remain supple, smooth - almost unused.

You will ask yourself, “Is he right?” How could a keyboard be so aggressive and wrong, and yet, support something so gentile.

You try to deny the feeling. Your friends and family will mock you like your uncle Dvorak. Maybe you start with a trackball and see if being naughty feels right.

This is just ads with extra steps

Sawme here! Honmestly I dom"t thinkl I coukd ever go vack tp a mormal keyboard ¶¶¶¶

Can you recommend a cheap split keyboard? I'm not sinking 300$ to discover I hate it

There's a dude developing out a neat split keyboard that's ergo but you are typing in like chunks of words or something.

Looks like your fast af once used to it.

Each finger goes up down left right i believe. Can't remember the name!

It's quite refined looking.

So is this the new trend after 60% mechanical keyboards, ultrawide monitors or immutable distros ?

Maybe it would improve my typing speed, but I've been using a conventional keyboard layout for so long now, I'm fine with where I'm at. Almost thirty years of muscular memory made it "hard coded" in my hands.

Imagine playing Dwarf Fortress in a recliner with a pair of these.

Here's what I want: tiny, one handed bluetooth chord keyboard.

For typing on my phone. Can someone make one?
