I have 2 ergodox EZs, a homemade redox that uses Bluetooth, and a homemade dactyl manuform.
For ergonomics, I'd say these are my priorities:
The arrangement of keys on the ergodox got me to start typing correctly, and I think the split helped a lot with my posture.
I had some bad luck with my dactyl manuform, the tenting was too aggressive, and the thumb cluster was angled in such a way that it put lots of strain on my thumb. I'm currently looking at replacing that with a Ferris Sweep.
Bluetooth was a mistake, the latency was unbearable. It led to one half of the keyboard being consistently slower than the other half, so I'd constantly make mistakes. I used nice!nanos fwiw.
