Overwhelmed by options of ergo keyboards. Please send help.
I've been wanting to try an ergo split keyboard but there are so many options.
The 3 I checked are Kinesis 360 (https://kinesis-ergo.com/keyboards/advantage360/), Glove80 (https://www.moergo.com/collections/glove80-keyboards) and the Moonlander (https://www.zsa.io/moonlander/).
These below are what I got from watching reviews:
- Kinesis is difficult to customize and sometimes has connectivity issues
- Glove80 feels cheap
- Moonlander doesn't have many keys
Considering the prices, the moonlander is about US$100 cheaper than the others, so feels like a better option.
I am interested in options with keywell, as they feel way more comfortable, but anything will be better since I use a usual non-split keyboard.
What are your opinions/suggestions/experience with these types of keyboards?
If I had to pick between those 3, I would probably go with the Glove80. I've just really liked that board since the guy that made it first posted early pics.
If you can solder and are willing to go with a smaller thumb cluster, look into a Sofie or Lily58 kit. That would be cheaper by far but I get why someone wouldn't want to go that route too.
