[meme] Ergolignment Chart - what is an ErgoMechKeyboard?

Where do you stand?

ergomechkeyboards

!ergomechkeyboards

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

No Spam

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

Did a dog eat and regurgitate the entry labelled lawful evil? Also, why are none of the chaotics even ergo, or keyboard?

•

It's a reference to the Sandwich Alignment Chart, "a burrito is a sandwich"

The chaotics aren't actually ergo because the rules of what counts as ergo have broken down, that's the joke.

See this table for the descriptions.

Dactyl CC. So somewhere around Lawful neutral?

•

man i want a dactyl like this

•

I think this chart need a revision.

You could have added the squeezebox, some scotto, artsey.io....

•

I'm somewhere between lawful neutral and lawful evil with a Compactyl. I really want to know what lawful evil is

•

I will need several burritos to evaluate your chaotic evil claim. Preferably breakfast, with salsa on the side.

•

What's with the lack of tenting? Nobody cares about pronation?

•

Anything without wells isn't ergo - change my mind.

•

What's that lawful evil? Looks great :P
