Glad to see you again!
ErgoMechKeyboards
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

I have no idea if these summaries are anything useful.
@dovenyi@lemmy.world They are useful IMHO. "Behind the scenes" are actually my favorite parts 😁
ditto. I read the BTS top to bottom.
I may be in the minority here, but I'd love to see more of the keyboard images featured in the header, also appear throughout the article. I think keyboards are cool because they're fun examples of design, and objects that can fuse function and form- so I love the pretty keyboard pictures!
That's a great idea. Like a "on the cover" / "in the header" caption with links.
That would be excellent! perhaps we'll see something like that in the future
Thank you for the news!
