I've been using my 34 key ferris sweep for a couple of years now and I love it.

I have a charybdis nano that I need to wire up, it makes me really appreciate the tighter choc spacing on the sweep, that and the low profile keys are doing a lot for comfort IMO

I ride my bike to work and it is a highlight almost every day I go in

Did I miss this copypasta? I've never seen so many straw man arguments presented at once

I have the WV1 which I got to suck up condensation. It works well for that, but I wouldn't use it to clean a window, it doesn't have enough beans

Haha good call on the orange voting guy, I'm no artist but I think it would come across better without the black outline

I have a sweep as my first split keyboard which I love, but still want to try others. What else have you used and what keeps bringing you back to the sweep?

Preonic -> Ferris sweep -> ? (self.ergomechkeyboards)

I built this after borrowing a Preonic and slowly reducing the keymap to a 34 key layout. Touch typing actually feels good on it compared to row staggered boards.

I'm looking now to what I will do next, I'm still stoked with it after four months usage. As an excuse to try more designs I will probably build a 34 key dactyl manuform for home.

There's the community browser at https://browse.feddit.de/ which is searchable, lists communities from lots of instances, and shows post/subscriber count for each

The list of "all" communities on this instance will only include those that have been subscribed by at least one user on this instance

This link will take visitors to the community through their instance ergomechkeyboards@lm.paradisus.day as long as someone has already subbed from it

There is also ergomechkeyboards@lemmy.world already, but it isn't seeing much traffic yet

Cool! I'm a big fan of the trackpoint having used it in several ThinkPads, it would be cool to have available at the desktop too

Both seems like the way to go, and let's be consistent. There is the same discussion for Wellington with a similar idea but slightly different format
