Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to give a quick heads-up for anyone who might have missed it, there are only 7 days left on the Kickstarter campaign for the TAIKO-01 keyboard!

If you haven’t seen it yet, there's some background here: https://lemmy.world/post/47465897.

You can find the campaign and all the details here:

Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/taikohub/taiko-01-keyboard

Official Site: https://taiko.taikohub.com/

What do you guys think of the layout and design? Anyone here already backed it?

I've been drooling over the open tab ever since the Kickstarter went up. I have many keyboards from my firmware hacking days, but one with a keywell is missing from my collection. Sadly can't afford it, but it'll remain on my wishlist, so whenever that changes, whenever I'll be able to afford one, I will get one.

I'm not sure it would replace my Keyboardio Model 100 (the thumb key on that is just so incredibly useful), but it's the closest thing I've seen so far.

Good luck!
