I had done a lot of research on keyboards and found this one to be the best for portability and ergonomics (I was working hybrid at the time). I would recommend this keyboard to anyone, and frankly, any keyboard from ZSA for that matter. At that same time I switched my keyboard layout from QWERTY to <a href="https://colemakmods.github.io/mod-dh/">Colemak-DH</a>. After a couple of years with the Moonlander, I 3D printed and hand-wired a <a href="https://imgur.com/a/TKPlpTG">5x6 Dactyl Manuform</a>, which has been my daily driver keyboard for the last couple of years. It addresses all the ergonomic needs I felt were missing from the Moonlander, mainly the wells for your fingers to rest in. That slight decrease in finger movement really makes a difference in long typing sessions.</p>
