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

Silvers are my choc of choice right now, but I like purpz/pinks on the pinkies. Pro Reds are a good option too, being just a lil lighter than silvers.
Were the pro reds a little too light for your liking?
Nope, they were too red for me. If the crystal reds were 5pin I'd use them a lot more.
Haha, too red? Oh, you mean the housing color itself?
Yeah, lol. Red is one of my least favorite colors.
I like it but… sparingly. It needs to be used with intention and preferably as an accent.
Think I might try some silvers. the reds just feel a tad too stiff, which was surprising to me.
