That seemed like a lot of hurdles to have jumped through but I’m glad you stick with it and that you’re enjoying it.
I originally thought people were crazy for using 40% boards, but with home row mods I’m now using 34 keys and I would never go back to using a standing row stag 60% again lol.
Welcome to the ergo split club, and the months of tinkering with your layout until it works the best for you :)
Thank you! I guess with enough training motor functions will eventually pick up on the c-c-c-c-combos required to type without tripping over every other special character or number. :-) I however feel like below 60 keys every missing key adds one to
xwhere(weeks required to get comfortable with the layout) ^ x, heh. How long did it take you to get fluent?It took me about a week or so once I dropped down to 34. Sometimes I would lose a key and that made me realize it needed to be moved if I couldn’t easily remember it.
One thing I found super helpful was configuring autoshift for non-alpha characters. So now I can hold [ to get { for example, or 2 for @. It’s helped a lot in reducing the size of my keymap. And as I said, home row mods are incredible once you become accustomed to using them.
If you’re interested I can share my own keymap, which might help you come up with some ideas that help you.
