Not at all, stenography is much more involved. I really only do input by the letter (plus a combo for “sch” which is frequent enough in German that sc being a same-finger bigram in my layout would annoy me.)

Here’s a visual representation :)

Well I won’t have any problems with doctors I suppose

tbh it sounds like what you need is better firmware configuration if these things are out of reach. a common approach is to make the spacebar a tap-hold key that outputs space on tap and switches to another layer on hold. on that layer you could bind arrow keys on ijkl, for example, and still have shift, alt, ctrl in easy reach.

I wrote a short Introduction to Small Keyboards a while ago for the guys from keeb.supply when they first stocked kits for my Zilpzalp keyboard.

Maybe it’ll help understand some of the appeal of small boards and how to productively use them 😊

Afaik, there’s only a few models that you can use the switches of… Here’s some more details: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19UCdgpzgFKxGdhGBXevc7OxsyMYAmwKew-pMzkjfXtI/htmlview

it’s aptmak plus random caps on the keys i don’t use :)

pretty much, yea! The Gabriele used cherry MY switches iirc, and the stems are very similar :)

If you actually have to type all day, you get into ergonomic mechanical keyboards 😎

Thank you!

There’s actually no burnt orange [in this picture], those are the sunsets :)

I’m really enjoying purpz, pinks, and robins with purpz springs as well. I’ve also got some silvers lubed and spring-swapped to 15gf that feel pretty fantastic!
