I’m looking to get one soon, but have no clue about them. Any ones you swear by?

    Split keyboard with very light (~25 g. force) Choc switches. Sofle, Helix, Corne, etc. Light switches make typing a pleasure, and you can put anything between the halves and position them however you like.

    Popular keyboards will probably have case designs already made, if you don’t want to have two somewhat bare PCBs on the desk. Though there’s an upside to caseless keyboards - the hands can lay down on the table because the keeb is 15mm high.

      I have a sofle with choc sunset orange tactile keys and I fricking love it. Only issue is it makes typing on a non split ortho linear feel like trash, which is annoying when you have to type on one, like a work laptop.
