Why do #keyboards have to be either absolutely basic, RSI-inducing, cheap pieces of plastic or over-the-top mechanical, gamer, #RGB monstrosities for hundreds of bucks? Why can’t we have a reasonably priced, #ergonomic keyboard that I won’t be ashamed to use at work?

Any recommendations for an ergonomic RGB keyboard?

I'm starting to feel twitchy for one. And if I'm not careful I might fall down the rabbit hole of building one myself.

(once again with hash tags so the sentence above is actually readable: #ergonomic #RGB #keyboard)

I'm in the market for a new #ergonomic keyboard for #gaming and writing. The Kinesis Freestyle Pro Quiet seems good. Has anyone tried it? Are there other options I should try? I'm moving from a 20ish year old Microsoft ergo that is finally dying.

I'm looking to replace my Logitech Wave with an #ergonomic #mechanical #keyboard and would appreciate any #recommendations from the community here.

Prefer cherry brown or red switches and a single piece design (not a fan of the 2-piece keyboards).

Upgraded my #ergonomic setup a bit more with the Logitech MX Ergo. Trackballs, what are old are new again!

I’d love the way this Sofle choc #keyboard looks and would really like to try one out. #Etsy shops like the linked one that I pulled these pictures from have theme premade... they are just more expensive than I’d like.

Are there any people I am connected to that are into #ergonomic split #keyboards? Specifically the #KinesisAdvantage or other contoured/concave designs.

I have never used a split KB, much less an extremely contoured device. I am basically having to relearn typing like I am a child again, and while I am very committed to sticking with this due to my wrist injury last year I am finding it very difficult to adapt.

Any pro-tips to make the intro easier?

@sylphrin I've been using the Kinesis "salad bowls" keyboards for 20+ years ("Ergo", then "Advantage", etc).

Pretty much every person who came to my cube for the first time made an audible gasp when they saw it 😀

I was looking at the Moonlander last week. It's not a good match for me, but it is extremely cool and looks well-designed.

I haven't posted about this thing in a while. By far the best thing I've thrown money at.

It's a Lily58 #MechanicalKeyboard with low-profile DSA Vilebloom keycaps on Cherry MX Brown switches.

I partly bought, partly built it for myself for Christmas after a year or more of occasional hand and wrist pain. It took some serious getting used to, learning to type from scratch again, but three months in my phantom hand/wrist pain has been eliminated. And it's more comfortable and fun to type on, and I can keep either my coffee mug or that Wacom tablet in between it.

Okay. Second attempt at this.

I'm looking for help finding a suitable replacement keyboard for my dying Microsoft ergonomic keyboard.

Must have:
• Ergonomic (split) design.
• Quiet keys.
• UK, QWERTY layout.

Would like to have:
• Numpad / arrows on the left.
• Backlit keys.
• Dedicated emoji key.

Here are examples of keyboards with some of the individual features I'm looking for combined in a single keyboard.

I would like to give a huge Right-To-Repair shoutout to the kind folks at P.I. Engineering for their work on the CST trackball(no, it didn’t die with Clearly Superior’s closure!). Not only is this thing built tough, but the sticker on the bottom? Doesn’t say “warranty void” - it says “unplug before service”. Replaceable parts and durable enclosure.

They do, in fact, make them like this anymore.

I've been suffering some mouse related wrist pain recently. It usually starts after a few hours.

I decided to try a Logitech Lift vertical mouse as those are supposed to force the hand into the optimal "handshake" position.

My wrist pain returned literally 5 minutes after using this mouse, several hours before I would experience it with a traditional mouse.

Can anyone recommend any other options?
