FWIW I've been quite happy with the ZSA Moonlander https://www.zsa.io/moonlander
My only complaint with the moonlander is that you can't use the tenting at all if you have the thumb cluster tilted upwards.

#92Earlier quoted context omitted.
If you're looking for something small but more ergonomic than a Plank, take a look at the Atreus (either as a DIY or in a kit from Keyboario[1]). I also had issues with the Plank but the slight angle of the keys on the Atreus has been extremely comfortable for me. [1] https://shop.keyboard.io/products/keyboardio-atreus
Love the small size, but the layout is too different from a "regular" keyboard for me to consider it; the switching costs between it and my laptop would be too high. Placement of shift, super (I use caps lock as super), and tab being the biggest issues.

+1 I really do like my new Moonlander, which I purchased in November. However, as a former Kinesis Advantage user, I miss the contoured shape, I think it helped a lot with carpal pain. That said, I'm not sure I can justify another keyboard.

#96I don't understand the surrounding decisions. Differentiating by wired/wireless makes sense. Using two different programming systems? No. ZMK instead of adding BT support to QMK? Why? RGB underglow but not individually programmable key backlights? For the money they are charging, all of these things should have been extremely easy decisions. Anyone have insight?
My best guess is that they're not important decisions to their target audience. I've been using a kinesis advantage for years, and I'm seriously considering getting one of these. I do not at all care about ZMK vs QMK -- I don't even know why I should care. RGB underglow? I don't even care that it's there, let alone programmable key backlights. I care about ergonomics. The selling point is the split, and bluetooth/wir…

#97Kinesis Advantage 2 is great, but it's massive and hard to travel with. Looks like the 360 might be a bit easier to travel with. The Kinesis Advantage 2 fits a Magic Trackpad perfectly right in the middle of the keyboard. This lets you perform mouse actions with you right and left hands. Emacs keybindings never made sense to me till I tried them with the Kinesis. I feel like Emacs sucks on a standard Mac keyboard and…
I bet the kinesis foot pedals would take emacs to the next level too. I use spacemacs in evil mode so I never bothered having to learn all those key chording things for emacs.
