My first ever bulid and I'm so excited! It's not trivial to build a perfect keyboard just from parts you can order in Europe. This is one doesn't look exactly how I imagined it but I love it anyway. If anyone is interested - it's a Sofle Choc V3 kit from 42. Keebs.

The first few days were a bit hard but after just a week of using it I was able to beat my monkeytype high score. I'm still not really fluid in using it for programming and vim in general though.

Last year i bought the Sofle V2 kit from 42 keebs. It's a beautiful kit, and the service was great. It felt strange to find someone so well served based in europe. I'll surely buy again from them!

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
