Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

The Corne v4 is starting to appear for sale now. This eBay vendor has reasonable prices and options to get the board "bare bones" or with switches or encoders: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?item=186471469253&rt=nc&_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l161211&_ssn=fengsbay&ref=mark.stosberg.com

Dropped the underglow though. Also, pcb outline has changed, existing cases won't fit.

I have a Corne that had the underglow. Turned it off. Won’t miss it. I look at the screen, not at the keyboard.

It’s too bad the PCB shape changed, but it sounded like it was an error correction based on precise key spacing.
