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

Not trying to argue with your preference, just trying to be informative:
The first model had shitty switches.
The newer model 100 is great and uses normal switches (you also can swap them).
They replaced/fixed any quality issues for both models, as far as I have followed in the forum/discord.
I also own both and I can not live without the palm keys haha so take my fanboyism with a grain of salt.
This is great information. I really do like the look of the Keyboardio, and even have a tiny preference for fixed splay. It's good to know they've fixed the switches;I think that's what initially threw me off.
