Hey there,

I've been doing a lot of typing lately on my shitty old Compaq keyboard (it has a good build quality, but keys require relatively much force to be pressed) and I experience some discomfort in my fingers.

Would anybody suggest any specific keyboard or keyboard type that would help me ease the strain? I know absolutely nothing about keyboards lol!

Perrix offers a split keyboard that I've been using for 20 years. It's modeled after the Microsoft Natural elite keyboard that was discontinued.

This one? https://ibb.co/vLKwXK5

I found it online in an online local store for equivalent of less than 20$, but it's used (ex-display).
