Feeling guilty about using my #ZSA #Voyager keyboard more than my #Moonlander on some days while I can't even type my account password on the macOS login screen with it.

A keyboard tweak I like:

I have a layer where numbers are arranged similar to a num pad.

But pressing the layer toggle key and shift to produce all the symbols I need during programming is kind of annoying.

To reduce these gymnastics, I added another layer with a one-shot layer toggle that exposes the symbols on the same locations of the numbers.

It's really good without modifiers (shift): hit the thumb key, then hit the symbol key, done.

My has landed, and setup on my desk. Now I just have to relearn how to type.

Introducing Layer Lock | ZSA: The Blog https://blog.zsa.io/layer-lock/

This is a cool feature: you can dedicate 1 key per layer to tell the keyboard to stay on that layer until you press the key again.

With small boards and many layers, this is a more economic alternative than using layer toggle keys and momentary or one-shot layer toggles together. I currently do that on my with the movement and numbers layer. Having a key to hold-to-switch and then lock, that sounds way better.

J'en enfin reçu et configuré mon clavier de chez ZSA c'est un mécanique à touches plates, split, orthogonal en 60%, ultra programmable et portable... Et ben c'est génial (et les coulurs servent vraiment à qqch ici : ça indique le rôle des touches selon la "couche" active.

Maintenant faut apprendre à le maîtriser !

Clavier split (en deux morceaux) dont les touches sont illuminée en vert, en jaune, en violet et en rouge selon leur fonction. C'est la couche de base qui permet de taper Comme avec un pavé numérique (en rouge) et aussi le touche de (en violet)
Clavier split (en deux morceaux) dont les touches sont illuminée en vert, en jaune et en rouge selon leur fonction. C'est la couche De "déplacement" qui permet d'accéder aux flèches (en rouge) et au page up/down ou début/fin(en jaune) ou d'effacer (vert)

User Experience idea: have ZSA and JetBrains work together. When customizing my Moonlander Layout, I want to assign the icons in PhpStorm to my keymaps. e.g. the stop listening to Debug connection would be assigninable to a Moonlander key.

Do you use a Moonlander keyboard ? What are your favorite Macros?

Looking for inspiration

Moonlander tip: my hands are on the smaller side, so i needed to angle the thumb cluster up.

Intead of using the supplied hex key, I got a couple pieces of paper towel, fold them a few times, and place them under the thumb clusters.

Trying to transition to a 52 keys layout - with help of an electrical tape 😅

I am looking in to ZSA Voyager and Lily58 Pro (wireless). I like the later one more (on paper).

Anyone have experience with Lily ? Any other recommendations?

The biggest pain so far is the arrow keys on a different layer. That will take some getting used to.

finally got to start practicing with my Moonlander. Designing your ideal layout is one thing. But as soon as you start training with real content, that’s when you find the holes in yiur design.

The columnar layout makes my muscle memory feel wrong.

Also, I feel somewhat limited by number of physical keys on the Moonlander. I can’t imagine how people get by with the Voyager.

Buy I’m enjoying the challenge of learning

@dasdom has a "Shifted" (Planck-like) layout on their blog now:

omg i emailed to ask if a bag i wanted could arrive before this weekend because travel and they said yes it takes 1-2 days to process and then 1-2 days of delivery and i emailed back "hurray thank you can't wait!"

it's arriving tomorrow. 😳🥰

it's the big one. the Apex travel 😇 it's big enough for me to put a smaller bag inside of it 😂 AHHHH I LOVE SHOPPING FOR

it's 26L; larger than my rambler and probably the largest capacity backpack i will own. CHECK IT OUT THO

@dhrystone haha i might buy the small format one makes but otherwise my moonlanders are satisfying my at-keyboard needs. i am not surprised that people buy just the left half for creative and gaming needs!

i hear their new low-profile board split keyboard is great. i know 2 people that bought them. i would need to type on one before buying one on a whim sheesh

Experimenting with weird layouts on the reveals that I have very strong touch-type muscle memory for the layout.

When I'm stuck, I begin typing the wrong keys by moving fingers reflexively, and I know that it's NEO2 keys which are supposed to be there.

I can't hold it in any longer:

A 52 key keyboard like the works surprisingly well with a couple of layer changes,

but

I'm stumbling the least in where I have modal keybindings on the software layer and got used to them for ~2 years.

Sometimes I make rational purchasing decisions and sometimes the purchase is related to

Ordering the now, yes it’s got less keys on the thumb cluster than the and I’m not I’ll like it ….. but
