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

How is the moonlander? Worth the cost?
I adore the Moonlander, and absolutely think it's worth the cost. I plan to keep using both boards in different contexts.
I have a Moonlander and think it is great. However, if I were to buy a new ergo split keyboard today, I would seriously consider a glove80: https://www.moergo.com/collections/glove80-keyboards/products/glv80-soldered?variant=44253212377361
I’ve heard great things about the Glove80! I like a 40% layout, though, so it has way too many keys for me.
I have the moon lander and like it a lot.
The downsides to it are that it is not wireless, and it has too many keys for me. If you keep everything on within one row from the Home row, you really only need like 36 keys.
Otherwise, I think it’s a great keyboard, even though it is expensive.
