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

Got RSI from coding at job circa 2016 and bought this baby for $350. I'm using it as long as possible, but I would love a metal splittyboi

Thumb clusters are life!

Last year I made the switch from the KA2 to a custom built keyboard (Scylla kit from BastardKB) and I have been really happy with it. Keeps the curve of the hand, has better thumb clusters (IMO), is split, and has full customization through QMK. Plus it was fun to try building my own!
