![]() This is great because I use many machines-I can’t afford to ruin myself for other keyboards. The heights and angles of the individual keycaps vary slightly so that the fingertips fall into a sort of shallow bowl of keys-a much, much subtler version of the 3-D layouts you see on Maltron keyboards. So I picked up the Wave and I’ve been very happy with it-I’m typing with fewer errors too. The laptop-like layout of the Logitech Dinovo, which had been my keyboard for the last two years or so, stopped working for me. I wanted an ergonomic keyboard because I’ve been coding a lot lately and definitely started to feel some tension in my wrists. If you like tinkering emacs config and packages, you’d love QMK.ĭavidOtoole: A few days ago I got a Logitech Wave Keyboard. QMK has lots of other features like macros, layers, etc. Super comfortable as alt,shift,ctrl can be accessed under the thumb (in addition to their normal positions). Or tap ctrl, ‘x’, 2 to split windows etc. Just tap shift, and then alpha or symbol keys. With this setup, it makes all modifiers very easy to reach and you don’t need to hold the mod. I configured mine with one shot modifiers and have alt, shift under my left thumb, space, ctrl under my right thumb (there’s also ctrl on the capslock position and regular shifts on both sides) They also sell assembled keyboard (Around $220 for the kbd75v2 with gateron yellow). They all support 3 way split spacebar in this layout: And more advanced ergo keyboard like Dactyl manuform will either require lots of work (full day building, soldering, testing) or very expensive to get a prebuilt. There are lots of ergo-style keyboards, but I personally don’t like them because they take away the inverted arrow clusters and page up/down, home/end in their usual locations. The QMK firmware enables your keyboard to be programmable (just like Emacs), and I strongly advise getting a QMK-enabled keyboard (it will require customization of the config just like. The custom keyboard market has seen rapid growth in the last 5+ years.
