I love Ergodox ( https://ergodox-ez.com/ ). There is a new keyboard by the same company which looks cool, but I haven't tried it yet: The Moonlander ( https://www.zsa.io/moonlander/ )

The moonlander looks awesome. The ergodox-ez looks nice as well. I wish there were some cheaper options out there for people who don't know how to solder.

Kinesis Advantage: https://kinesis-ergo.com/shop/advantage2/

From what I've read this one is amazing. Not sure I want to drop that much cash on a keyboard yet though. Plus I've seen some reviews about it being a fixed layout as a downside (and some reviews where that is an upside).

Most of the good ergonomic keyboards are around the same price. Look at this one which it is good, but I personally didn't like: https://kinesis-ergo.com/shop/advantage2/

You could try Microsoft's ergonomic keyboards, they are cheaper, but I personally didn't like them either: https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/en-us/products/keyboar...

What put you off about the Advantage 2?

Basically what put me off was the way the keys are arranged in a semi circle. It was uncomfortable to code. I am not sure if it is because I have big hands or just the design didn't work for me.
