hi, i finally want to have a split ergo keyboard - it’s time. i have no nerves for soldering or searching the parts together piece by piece, i am more the buyer than the builder. the zsa moonlander seemed to fit my wishes very well so far - but the shop based in us/taiwan is quite a problem. not only the customs and what if i really want to return it (not planned, but you never know) - but only getting additional parts like the platforms would rise the final price higher than my budget probably.

are there alternatives shipping from europe? props to zsa team, still, i really like the spirit…

    I’ve always been fascinated by the kinesis offerings. I had a stroke last year and am considering a Kinesis keyboard since the fine motor skills in my left hand are quite bad and my therapist thinks something like that might be helpful.

      I recently switched to primarily using a Glove80, but the Kinesis Advantage keyboards are great. There is a learning curve, but it is definitely worth it.

          Improved key wells, thumb clusters with more reachable keys, more compact and light (nicer for travel), switch choice, RGB backlight (handy for status report like battery life, active layer, Bluetooth profiles, etc.), function keys (which some people want), uniform key cap profile (can be rearranged when using eg. another layout).
