Thx for sharing, this might come in handy for a start!

I get the idea about blank caps and simplicity, I even considered this myself for a while but it just won't be useful when working between Latin/Cyrillic on one task or for longer periods of time on one of each and then switching. At least my experience.

If I remember right, there was even some post about DIYing somewhere on here, I need to take a look through the posts again.

Perfect! I know what I will be busy with over the weekend :)

I'm on Wayland. I still fear this part of the process XD but I usually figure things out somehow. There are indeed some characters I only use here and there, so the soultion might work for those cases, thanks for letting me know about your Layout. So what are the techniques to add characters to blank caps? Maybe DIYing would be an idea for the Latin/Cyrillic issue. I'd like some green/brown/yellow combo so maybe I'll just buy a bunch and see what I can do from there.

I'm not 100% sure I should go with one of their Keyboards then. Also had some other EU based company that I really liked after doing a bunch of research on this, but I lost all my notes about the whole process and haven't been able to track it down since. Would appreciate the links, if you can find the time later

so ANSI is the way to go. Thanks for the Link, will check it out later

This feels so true. Modern day version maybe. It's been a journey to understand and accept.

pure Cashmere or Cashmere-Wool blend is usually not as itchy (I am similarily sensitive) and work great as a in-between layer. No turtlenecks! I own a Cashmere Hoodie for instance, which is great. Unfortunately a bit more pricey but keeps you a long way if you take care of it. I lost the perfect heavy woolen cardigan to a washing accident, so need to find a new one too :/

Actually, does footwear count as well? I got into barefoot shoes about a year ago and can not recommend them enough!

I don't like exposing my arms/wrists for whatever reason when I'm in public. At home I'm usually okay with it but sometimes prefer to wear another layer just for that reason. That's something I look out for as well, extra long sleeves

That's my go-to as well, loose fit and lots of cotton layers. For the colder seasons, if there's at least 2 layers of tshirt and longsleeve I also throw some woolen pieces and a down vest on top, it's surprisingly warm, breathy and comfy to wear even if it's minus degrees out.

Which are the places you buy your Tshirts etc. from? I found buying Merch/Band-Shirts (men's) a good source for heavy weight 100% cotton T's and Longsleeves. Hoodies too sometimes if you're lucky, but it can be extremely difficult to find the same quality in Hoodies. I always start sweating like crazy in synthetic kind, feeling so uncomfortable I can't think straight. Same for jogging pants and gym wear.
