I’m a complete novice to mech and ergo so I apologize in advance for any sins lol

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 and thumb cluster is on odd position

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 an conventional non-split keyboard.

The right menu links to a compare tool but there are so many.

My hands are small, so it may constrain the options I have. Or maybe not.

What are your opinions/suggestions/experience with these types of keyboards?

    I’ve used a moonlander at home for a couple years, and while I would hardly call myself a power user I do like it a lot. I also have relatively small hands, and now that the layout has been tailored it a little bit I do notice a signifcant difference in feel vs when I have to use a standard keyboard at work comfort wise.

    I’ve eyed the Kenesis but I like hot swapping switches too much, and haven’t mustered the motivation to build a dactyl even though I have the shell printed.
