I’ve had two days in a row where I got to nerd out over stuff with people. Let’s get some of that going for everyone else.

Speaking of hyperfocus!

Quick and rough concept. This allows for WASD usage without that stretch from full column stagger but also still allows for that pinky comfort, and takes a bit of strain off the lateral index stretching too. Thumb cluster needs some work.

Ah yeah! This was kind of my thought with the stagger on my split design. The Mod/Q/W Columns are unstaggered for comfort when switching between WASD and typing posture. The way I did it makes sense to my hands specifically, but I think yours makes more sense in general.
