I have had wrist pain for a while now, probably stemming from years of PC gaming without actually trying to make it ergonomic, but so far I haven't found any great solutions. Alice boards have been a half measure, the Azeron is fine if it addresses specific problems you have but it didn't solve any of my problems (and tenting it makes it really, really tall), and Razer's Tartarus is just really poorly laid out. I don't have any issues with the standard keyboard layout other than CTRL being a bit of a pain, I just want it to be farther over and tented. Stumbled on the Irispad, which is just the left side of an Iris but for pretty cheap (about $110 USD) and it has been great. I wish it came by default with tenting legs or that there were some entire cases with a fixed tenting angle other than the aluminum case (which is both expensive and not the right angle for me), but I can probably work something out eventually. Or if any of you have any 3D print files or know where to find some, let me know. Overall, I'm pretty pleased.

Disclaimer: Glorious sent me these keycaps for free in exchange for me posting something somewhere about them, so I am doing that here. Having said that, they are... fine. They don't really match my aesthetic as most of my setup is white or lavender and they are missing some important options like 1U modifiers or smaller spacebars for split boards. There's also no wider ALT key for the right side of my QK75. All of these are things I have grumbled about to them before, so it's unfortunate to see they have not addressed that. I also think the black may just be dyed on? The underside is white, not black, so maybe it was easier to get white legends by dying it black instead? I am not much of a keycap collector, so I don't know what's normal for this. Anyway, if this is your aesthetic and you don't need some of the unusual sizes, it's probably a good value, but I'll probably get something else eventually.
