Anyone have any ideas? It feels really bad to get something other than the QK75 that I have and love, but I have wrist problems with my left wrist and I'd really like something more ergonomic for gaming and that I don't have to reposition every time I switch between gaming and general computer use. I'm sure the Tartarus is fine, but I really loathe having to have Synapse running and would like something I can program with QMK. A similar layout (maybe a few more buttons, but I want the tented ergo thing) and price would be ideal, but I could be convinced to spend a little more if I have to. If I could get just the left side of a Dactyl, that would almost be a solution aside from the price (I don't really want to build from scratch). Ergodox has the Halfmoon, but it is decidedly bad for gaming given the low polling rate. Thoughts?

Thanks, I think I'll give the Compact a shot. It's not that much more than a Tartarus and it has way more buttons.
