So I switched to a low-profile angled keyboard basically identical to this: https://www.amazon.com.au/Perixx-PERIBOARD-805-Wireless-Ergonomic-Bluetooth/dp/B08KJ8JW9Q/ref=asc_df_B08KJ8JW9Q/?tag=googleshopmob-22&linkCode=df0&hvadid=463603004336&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15645889703857693714&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9071296&hvtargid=pla-1017854421494&psc=1

It’s been quite a few years now, and my RSI type issues have reduced a lot in that time, but I’m not sure it’s really cutting it anymore. Starting to get wrist pains again. So I think it’s time to up my keyboard game, but things get expensive going to the next level and the choices are kind of overwhelming. So I’m just hoping for some recommendations really.

I’m a programmer so that’s an important factor, I don’t want some weird key layout that’s good for typing English but rubbish for programming. But I also don’t really want to spend loads of time fully customising it. But I’m happy to learn a new layout if research or whatever supports it being better.

Well anyway, any thoughts welcome!

    Yep, I’ve daily driven mine for a few years now, been perfect. No more wrist pain/numbness since. I’m also a vim guy and have had no issue with using the default key bindings.
