I Recently found out that my work has a benefit where they give you a couple hundred dollars to improve your health somehow. Gym, massage, Ergo stuff, ect. I want o put it towards an Ergo Mechanical Keyboard.

I have seen LinusTechTip’s video on the Moonlander and I think it is for me (love the white, ortho linear, and split). But are there other things you folks would recommend that I check out?

Thank you for your time!

    Afaict, most folks in the scene end up with something more individual, mostly smaller designs, often with a bit more column stagger and/or splay.

    I feel like 34-36 keys is the sweet spot for most.

    Now the recommendation depends a bit on how much time you wanna spend with iteration of the keymap and physical layout. If you just wanna get a new keeb asap, then the moonlander is certainly an option.

    I’d recommend browsing the other posts a bit and also check out what vendors on your continent can offer if you don’t wanna build yourself.

      From my personal experience, I agree. But I can recommend having a larger board for trying out different layouts
