Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Too ergo, or not ergo enough?

I just feel like it would be like drumming.

My hands are as one with a regular keyboard and I feel like I couldn't keep them in sync plit up.

Eh, the split part is easy, it's the lack of row stagger that's going to trip you up for at least a couple of days.

You do get used to it, though, and after that a "normal" keyboard will feel as weird as it actually is, when you think about it.
