Dat is geen nederlands, vriend
That's not dutch, friend
Fries misschien
With the traed? It definitely looks more like some Scandinavian language.
The article 'dat' doesn't match with Nordic languages. Google translate says its Krio language, which is English-based and lingua franca in Sierra-Leone. However, I can't tell whether that's correct.
Well, the text in the review is obviously joking about how there's characters missing, so it is just English with substituted characters. I was just saying it looks less like Dutch to me, and more like a Nordic language. I am Dutch though, so I am probably biased :p
I just wanted to defend that it doesn't look Dutch, but neither Nordic. I know how they look, as I've been living there for a while.
But, looking at the image, It's probably just a joke that one can't write a properly spelled text with that keyboard.
For me it looks like my grandma has been trying to write a text in English 'by ear'.
My favorite part about this is the

To be fair I wanna press 'shift shift' just to see what it does 🤔
slides the universe 2 cm to the left
I can't figure out the last sentence (before fave stars)
I think it's "I recommend it to all Amazon watchers!", but I don't know what Amazon watchers are supposed to be. Also, if that were correct, it'd mean they used b to replace m in "recommend" ("recabed") but g in "Amazon" ("Agazad"), which would be a little inconsistent considering they used d > n and a > o in both words. So it's probably not Amazon, I guess. Maybe a show or something because of the capital A?
edit: after thinking about it for a few more hours, maybe it's a porn site or a euphemism for porn? I don't know any that would translate to "Agazad," but that'd explain the need for a one-hand keyboard.
"I recommend it to all Amazon watchers (?)"
Wat te fc were ter sde
Dwarvish or Irish?
how the heck are you supposed to type on this thing. or is it more like "that's the fun part: you don't!"
IIRC, holding space flips it from left side of the keyboard to right side. You can see the letters in small print at the center of the keys. The idea being it makes use of existing right hand muscle memory, just mirrored.
I think the upper right hand key is what flips it, I would guess holding shift and that key gives you the numeric characters and symbols.
It's probably meant for games
Stick to gaming use of it and youll be fine
Unless you want to insult your enemies mom using the chat. Than one with all letters is probably better.
Yeah, but a gaming purist doesnt do that
Anyone got a link?
Damn they are straight up robbing single handed people
Alternatively, buy a Corne PCB and make two of them (or a left AND a right) yourself! https://keyhive.xyz/shop/corne-v3
You should ask for a Lemmy username instead of a reddit username at checkout. Although willingly doxxing oneself seems odd, even if the intentions are good.
Not my site, though I've bought from him before. The Corne PCBs are pretty popular and can be bought lots of places. I think the username is because he's active on reddit and answers tech support style questions there.
