    I prefer fully split keyboards overall, but every time I go back to using my Atreus I'm reminded what a nice keyboard it is, and how lovely it feels to type on it. Those guys know what they're doing.

    Yeah, I get it. I say the same thing about boards with no number keys and people tell me I can just use layers. But for whatever reason, layers for function keys makes more sense to me. It's just like pressing "shift" except instead of "shift" you press a different button and the number/function key.

    I know of almost no ergo boards that have dedicated function keys. Moonlander does have number keys though... and you can use layers to turn those into function keys...

    I have a Moonlander and find it works well for me. Took a little while to get used to, but really not long, and the longer I used it, the more I liked it. Not sure what you mean that it doesn't have many keys, as it has way more than a lot of ergo keyboards?

    Gateron low profile switches... which seem (slightly) better than chocs for low profile switches. Also, I think that the Gateron low profile switches work fine in MX hotswap sockets.

    Not only do they, they're relatively inexpensive (compared to some other keycap offerings...) and they seem to have sales every so often too.

    Keycaps are from Nuphy. Using Gateron low-pro switches, which I think are compatible with standard Cherry MX switches...

Works... surprisingly well. Though the furthest thumb key on both halves doesn't seem to work...
