LynxI recently (a few weeks ago) finished putting the latest version of my Dactyl Lynx <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> together, using my Snowshoe MX single-switch PCBs, and I'm incredibly happy with the results! <a href="https://hackaday.io/project/176016-dactyl-lynx/log/241332-finally-finished-the-new-build" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hackaday.io/project/176016-dactyl-lynx/log/241332-finally-finished-the-new-build</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/ergonomic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergonomic</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/ergokeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergokeyboard</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/dactyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dactyl</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mechanicalkeyboard</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/splitkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#splitkeyboard</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3dprinting</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/rp2040" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#rp2040</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/rmk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#rmk</a>

Andy Warburton ❌❌❌Finished building my new hardwired split mechanical keyboard this weekend! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3dprinted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3dprinted</a> based on my own design, spray painted and powered by a pair of Raspberry Pi Pico W’s. Of course, it’s running my fave <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> firmware <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/KMK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KMK</a>! Sadly <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CircuitPython" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CircuitPython</a> doesn’t yet support BLE on the PicoW so it’s not wireless yet, but I’m just counting down the days!

Nowhere!Fast!It takes time and I’m still so damn slow but I can feel a substantial improvement in typing speed and accuracy after 3 days. And on the way I’m learning to use 10 fingers for typing and hell of a lot of shortcuts. <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/zsa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zsa</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/moonlander" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#moonlander</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/typing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#typing</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mechanicalkeyboard</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/ergokeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergokeyboard</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/ergonomics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergonomics</a>

Bastian Greshake TzovarasA good three weeks later I'm up to ~82 WPM on the split keyboard, at least for regular text, finding symbols and shortcuts is still a bit slower!<a href="https://scholar.social/tags/ergokeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergokeyboard</a> <a href="https://scholar.social/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> <a href="https://scholar.social/tags/SplitMechanicalKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SplitMechanicalKeyboard</a>

Half an Avocado 🥑After years of interest in split ergonomic keyboards, I finally bit the bullet and ordered a MoErgo Glove80! Really excited about its ergonomic design, especially the concave key wells and thumb clusters.

DataKnightmareHello collective intelligence on <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/keyboards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboards</a>! I want to gift myself a proper <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/ergokeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergokeyboard</a> .I've seen the <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a>.io 100 and the <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/zsa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zsa</a> Voyager. Both nice, I would ofc want super-clicky switches, and both can be programmed and flashed via web (as in: Burn The Apps Down).Needs to be carriable&sturdyI type for a living, about 90% text but I still like to code. After years of being forced to the _gaming_ aisle for decent hardware, I want something *serious*.Experiences? Thanks!

Matt MaguireI've started exploring a modern <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/AltKeyboardLayout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AltKeyboardLayout</a> called <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/Gallium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gallium</a>, very similar to the <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/Graphite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Graphite</a> layout. It is reported to have a nice flow to it, will see how it compares to the <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/ISRT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ISRT</a> (<a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/Colemak" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Colemak</a> based) layout that's I've been using up until now. <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/MechKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MechKeyboard</a> <a href="https://mastodon.teachmaths.org/tags/ErgoKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ErgoKeyboard</a><a href="https://www.teachmaths.org/index.php/2024/10/02/gallium-keyboard-layout/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.teachmaths.org/index.php/2024/10/02/gallium-keyboard-layout/</a>

Francesco Yoshi Gobbo :linux:Since mid October 2023, noticing I was starting to have more and more <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/wristPain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#wristPain</a>, which were lasting days instead of hours... I opted to give those fancy <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ergonomic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergonomic</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/splitKeyboards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#splitKeyboards</a> a chance, and after several research hours, I opted for the <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ZSA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ZSA</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Moonlander" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Moonlander</a>, there were alternatives, but too far from what I was used to, was unsure and this was my final choice. (also found a good local used deal)Since I was changing keyboard, why not use also a more ergonomic layout? So, I opted for a <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/shockTherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#shockTherapy</a> and went with <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Dvorak" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Dvorak</a> and used this combination ever since! My first days were quite.... a going back to when I was 7 years old, sub 10 wpm XD but after a couple of weeks, typing was not as humiliating as before and my speeds increased :)From time to time, I recorded my progress on <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Monkeytype" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Monkeytype</a> and these at the bottom are 4 months of data, from a classical full size <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/qwerty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#qwerty</a> at 110ish wpm to currently 60ish, with a constant increase week after week. I am not in a hurry, as my wrist pain vanished, and that was the final goal.. So I'm okay with half the speed and -95%ish pains :)Hope this might prove useful to someone that is also considering this <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/journey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#journey</a> or have this kind of <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/pain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pain</a> ^^<a href="https://monkeytype.com/profile/frayoshi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://monkeytype.com/profile/frayoshi</a> --- <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#data</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#research</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/computer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#computer</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ergoKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergoKeyboard</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/keyboards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboards</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ergo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ergo</a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/zsaMoonlander" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zsaMoonlander</a>

stffffnNice, the PCBs arrived. Now it's time to source all other needed parts. Except Pro Micros, I still have enough of them lying around.And yes, I picked green on purpose.
