I am not a doctor, and this is not medical advice: I hear these are great if you suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome, as the keyboard is split, the keys are low profile, and are also mechanical (low resistance).

    If you touch type, alice layout isn't the worst when it comes to getting used to them. The two Bs and having the arrow keys help a lot.

    • Exactly this!

    • I recommend the Q11 split board! Was initially oggling the more expensive ones like the Moonlander and Dygma options, but the Q11 does pretty well.

      • I have heard that having a split keyboard with tinting option is good for ergo side of things (the split part handles the natural curvature human body has when we type, the tinting helps with the angle that the wrist would be in).

        • Yeah some of the more expensive options promote the Tenting, but I personally haven't found any issues with the flat-based Q11. If you're going to leave the Q11 in one place, then you can always attach something the bottom of the base to prop it up - I experimented with bull clips at one point.

          YMMV.

          are you referring to Tilting? or I am genuinely puzzled if there's actually a thing with Tinting…

    • Ah, that's a great point about the B keys. I think a lot of other spilt keyboards have the B key grouped to the left, which doesn't work well for me as I'm used to pressing B with my right index finger

      • Speaking two languages, I type B differently depending on the language for some strange reasons.

    … as the keyboard is split, the keys are low profile, and are also mechanical (low resistance).

    Wait until you hear switches which require 150 GRAMS OF ACTUATION FORCE exist 😆

    • Tell me more, tell me more?

    • That will be huge in gym. Do you even type, bro?

      • oh… i get it now.. 150grams vs 0.5 grams or , whatever..

    • I've tried the 1,500g springs before that's insane… LOL

    • going full circle with the traditional typewriter, i see. 🤔
