I fell victim to this one on authentic “retro” N64 hardware, which has a hard plastic analog stick. Got an enormous blister right on the palm of my hand trying to win this tug of war. Of course, my young brain was able to hyperfocus on the game and completely tuned out any sense of pain in my hand. It was quite gruesome when I finally beat it and realized my hand was torn to shreds. I was at my neighbors place and I remember how shocked their mom was. She applied some cream that I think was meant for severe burns.
Nintendo would later run a campaign where they’d send you fingerless gloves for free to try to do some damage control on all the negative press when reports started popping up.
I use a 60% for literally everything. It’s my only keyboard. If I had more keys, 99.9% of what I’m doing would be on these keys anyways.
I’m often using vim-style navigation in editors, which is designed to minimize the need to move your hands off the home row in the first place.
When I do need arrow keys, I hold a modifier key and my hjku keys become arrow keys. For gaming I can toggle the arrow keys on so I don’t need to hold another key the whole time.
I wouldn’t say I have a wildly complex setup. There are very few custom keybinds that I use regularly and need.
