Either it will be become an important key (“Windows/Super”) or it won’t (Context menu). Microsoft is being eye-rollingly cringey with the specific keyboard requirement, but I assume there are probably about a million more concerning things about “AI PCs” than the keyboard button.
Also, mech keyboards for the win. Nobody is forcing keyboard nerds to do shit with their keycaps. 😂
Context menu is indispensable for me. So many commands can be done mouseless because of this.
Been thinking about getting an ergonomic split board, I'd prefer wireless. Any recommendations?
My thing is more "unwieldy hand-wires that don't really need to exist." For you though, the simple answer is a wireless "Alice" from Keychron. They have a few variations going from about $100-$200, a little less if you can live with a wire. Beyond that, you can look for Ergodox or go smaller to Corne. You end up with a lot of DIY or even commissions in that space, though, as it's sort of by definition going to attract people looking for something personalized.
You could be in luck, though: while none are much of a hub, the most active keeb community on Lemmy is probably the [email protected] one.
Ah I was hoping for a split board. Thanks for the suggestions though I was looking at the corner and the chocify before.
It's you're actually concerned about ergonomics you should look into the Glove80.
Damn right. I'm just a prebuilt user but it was the best decision I ever made and I'm never going back.
