The Keychron K11 Max is one of the best, most comfortable keyboards ever manufactured. Change my mind.

Had the kit for it since December now, but didn't quite get around to actually tackling that project. But last week I finally got around to writing the keymap and getting it to compile, and on Tuesday I managed to print the case and assemble everything.

I even assembled it wrong at first, and only realized after I already had soldered all switches, meaning I had to unsolder everything once. Still, I managed to finish it.

If you are tall or have broad shoulders, you may particularly benefit from the ergonomics of a truly split keyboard.

There are options in all sizes and layouts.

@wsa That’s a Boardsource Unicorne with MT3 keycaps and a custom cable between the halves.

https://boardsource.xyz/products/unicorne-mx-aluminum-corne-case

I created my own layout firmware for it: https://mark.stosberg.com/markstos-corne-3x5-1-keyboard-layout/

At this point I’m fairly fast and efficient with it.

wanted to build a new version of vial, bcs i want CHORDAL_HOLD for my piantor but failed to install arm-none-eabi-gcc with c_nano on gentoo for some reason so just did the build in a ubuntu podman container :3

You’d think the cable’s loop exists to indicate “Cat’s face goes here”.

ZSA is really good at #keyboards 😍, and really bad at capitalism* 😁. I broke a part on my #ZSAVoyager and emailed to buy a replacement PCB (1/3 the total cost of the board!). I didn't ask about using the warranty because I'd made some mods that voided the warranty ages ago, but they looked up my order, saw it was still under warranty, and said they'd apply it. I thanked them and said I'd voided the warranty so I'd just pay for the replacement, but they said the mods I'd made wouldn't have caused the problem so if it would be okay with me they'd like to cover it anyway.

*I love them for this

Well, now that my lily58 ergo mech board is down I'm falling back to my spare. It's an Epomaker TH 66 and its fine for a standard board.

I got to say though going from column staggered back to row staggered is not a happy place for me.

#ergomechkeyboards #ergomechkeyboard #mechanicalkeyboard #mechanicalkeyboards

I'm crushed. The left half of my lily58 ergo mech keyboard started flaking out yesterday. Once plugged in it types 5tgb and then those keys go dead. I'm thinking a short.

It's a boardsource.xyz buy, not quite a year old. I'm going to reach out but any troubleshooting would be appreciated.

The patio tables at most cafes make the perfect surface to put my magnetic keyboard stands on. 😁

I've taken the next step on my #AltKeyboardLayout #SplitKeyboard journey where I move from the #Gallium layout to the #Graphite layout. While there is not a huge difference between these two keyboard layouts, the Gallium layout has some punctuation tweaks that might make it easier to type the \( \LaTeX \) code in my lesson handouts.

It was not without some challenges to implement #graphite on my #ZSA #Voyager keyboard though -- I captured some of my journey in this blog article:

#ergomechkeyboards fans:

There’s a new #Kyria split ergo keyboard on eBay that includes a tiny trackball, encoders (dials) and some desk mount adapters.

Since my #Moonlander brought me into the world of #ErgoMechKeyboards three years ago and I started getting the #ZSA newsletter, I've learned so much and gotten great ideas from the featured interviews, so I was *elated* when they invited me to do one. 🥳

Happy #40sDay y’all! #ergomechkeyboards #mechanicalkeyboards

Some #MechanicalKeyboard fans are celebrating the 40th day of year with #40sDay and photos of their keyboards that are 40% or less the size of a full size keeb.

Here’s my Unicorne by Boardsource and a custom cable by MechCables. Each half of the keyboard includes a joystick.

The keyboard layout is described here: https://mark.stosberg.com/markstos-corne-3x5-1-keyboard-layout/

Et voilà #mechanicalkeyboard #splitkeyboard #ergomechkeyboards

Experimented with the keymap for my Skeletyl by #bastardkb.

Switched to home row mods and took the idea of a layer with num-row on the home row and corresponding symbols above from one of the panelists of @ClickClackHack Late Night episodes (sorry forgot who it was... @ink or @opendev maybe?).

So far, I'm really happy with my Comfy36 keymap but feedback, suggestions or hints as to how to get Umlaute in QMK configurator would be great!

Keyboard arrived. Very impressed with the build on first inspection and glad I decided to stray from trusty black. The wood palm rests are super comfortable. There is going to be a bit of a learning curve and muscle memory shift from my HHKB Pro and I can see I will probably need to do some remapping for #emacs use. Thanks @ttscoff and @curtismchale for information on this before I ordered. #keyboard #ergomechkeyboards

The chair’s cover has a zipper underneath, and it just occurred to me I could stick magnets in the arms, under the fabric, so my keyboard can attach to the chair. 🎉

Fantasque Sans Mono appeared to be quite nice replacement for PT Mono in my keyboard cheat sheets. Bonus picture: freshly added mouse control layer, where fonts don't matter that much.

Which layout I don't consider broken? Well, a random example (source: https://github.com/fsck/qmk_firmware/blob/master/keyboards/eco/keymaps/fsck/readme.md)
