Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
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

Have been using the UT22 with the Taipo layout for a while now and am very happy with it. (Nowhere near my usual speeds yet, but very usable for recreational purposes!)
The case is Bubbleology's own closed-source design, which he kindly allowed me to get printed.
The firmware I'm using can be found here. :)
Yea, i'm also using light chocs here (pinks, which are 25g). Maybe i could even spring-swap them to 15g.
Aren't the Pink switches the recolored Light Blue, previously called gChoc, and all three linear, 20g? The Purpz (Purple) are linear, 25g - if I am not mistaken; there are several conflicting infos around
Yeah, tbqh I'm also never entirely sure with pinks, light blues and purpz :D
At one point in time, someone also sold manually spring-swapped pinks, so maybe the 20g info is from that batch? Not entirely sure though...
I plan on ordering sunsets, so I think it may still be quite rough lol. But I'm getting pro pinks and Robin's to try out to see if they would suit me better
robins are rather heavy, but pinks are great! i can also recommend swapping in 25g springs with the robins. makes for a great light clicky switch.
Good to know. I'll consider spring swapping them, maybe with 20g from the pro pinks since that's what I'll have. I appreciate the input :)
Just be careful to test whether they still return fine with 20g. I had quite a lot fail when i tried swapping in 15g springs :D
That's good intel. I hadn't considered that for clicky switches but there's gotta be something Tactile creating friction lol. Thanks again! :)
