Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
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

My daily driver setup. Using clamps like this allows me to mount to the chair without having to drill into it (or any other permanent modification like that). My biggest complaint about this setup is the USB cable reaching from the chair to the computer. I always need to be aware of where the cable is when rotating the chair and whatnot.
Hardcore. How long did it take you to get used to this setup? I feel like I'm playing on progress on my cornes and still need to switch to my regular keyboard sometimes for special characters :/
Maybe a few weeks of use after hours before I felt proficient enough to use it at work. Adapting to it is simpler than adapting to a different key layout (ex. QWERTY to Dvorak). I really recommend the Svalbr training web app! It helps you focus on the keys that you are struggling with.
