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

Maybe slightly off topic, but does anyone know anything about any DIY ergo mice projects?

This is defintely the direction I am looking for! I didn't realize qmk supported mouse sensors!

No, but if you enjoy having money, I suggest you look into the Om by ErgoDriven.

An actual steal at 20-30 bucks, imo.

Programmable buttons, alterable DpI up to 2400, even got two basically extra buttons, which, counterintuitively, make a ton of sense.

Not the craziest polling rate, but its great for office type work.
