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

Currently using these and they work pretty well. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqz9UNE
Yeah those work reaaaaal good i have four of those on my fifi, two on each board.
I found they worked merely okay. Maybe I just didn't have them positioned correctly but it was a little tippy. This was on a lily58, so the size may have made good balancing a bit tougher.
Either way, I switched them out for the magfrotto tenting, which works super duper well
Yeah, they are tippy.
I got mine perfectly balanced now tho, but with a lot of adjusting.
Oh okay nice! I'm glad to hear it! I had the decently balanced but thumb keys would tip it a bit. So I just decided to upgrade so I wouldn't have to deal with it.
Plus the new setup is modular so when I assemble my next keyboard all I need to do is add magsafe stickers
