I went 100% -> tkl -> 60% -> corne (couldn’t do it) -> lilly58 -> kenisis -> dactyl
If you can solder then kits aren’t expensive vs pre built. Go for hot swap and you can start out with cheaper switches and experiment from there. And if you can’t solder then it’s actually good way to learn 🤣
Don’t compare yourself to the rest of the comments. If your setup works for you then it’s a good setup.
If you’re interested in becoming more keyboard driven, start with learning vscode/db gui shortcuts for things that you do a lot: executing queries, jump to definition, or renaming variables, etc.
We’re all on our own journey as cringe as it may sound. Mine was due to wrist, thumb, and shoulder pain rather than being super productive.
For normal text I do have home/end bound but use it so infrequently that I forget them 😅
I use a dactyl but did use a 60% for a while. Vim key binds in your ide are the way forward.
Using a keyboard like that made me eventually switch over to neovim full time from vscode.
This. The arch wiki is a treasure trove of information. The more you do, the more you’ll learn.
Also, don’t blindly copy paste configs for editors or window managers. Just slowly build them up based on your own use. It’ll be painful initially but worthwhile in the long run
It’s beautiful, I’ve looked at this for five minutes now. You’ve won at the internet today, gg
