Hi,

I use an Ergodox and I’d like to get a keyboard that would best fit my use case :

  • alpha keys without numbers nor side column modifier (3x5 matrix for each hand)
  • 3 keys for each thumb
  • the inner thumb key should be compatible with a larger keycap
  • compatible with choc profile
  • pinky staggering more pronounced than the Ergodox (or the Corne)

I found the Chocofi that matches all of those criteria but I’m not expert, do you think there is something more suited ? Maybe a variation of the Piantor ?

    That’s fair. From my experience I probably wouldn’t notice a difference if the thumb keycap would be larger as the point of contact is quite small and not a flat area so the keycap doesn’t have to provide a large area.

    For reference my keyb: Piantor, Kailh Choc V1, Red Pro switches (35g) with MBK caps. Actually, I consider going even lighter on the switches (blue/pink: 20g), at least for the pinkes
