I mean this is what reddit.com/r/ergomobilecomputers is for . Try searching there for ‘sonshi’ setups so you can just put a small ergo keyboard on top of your MacBook.

one example is the corne: Reddit.com/…/ergomechkeyonlaptop_corne_foldout_tr…

Has your ergomechkeyboard helped you recover from RSI pain?

Hi, I’ve been meaning to make a travel-friendly ergonomic keyboard setup for a couple years ago after starting /r/ergomobilecomputers, so far just been on a raised tablet setup with a regular keyboard (a setup I’ve enjoyed, but will confess I’ve some slight pain from using a standard keyboard with it)...

Thanks for sharing and nice to hear the argument that " a split keyboard is absolutely 100% mandatory"

Yeah, part of the reason I’m asking is because I was originally set on a rather subtle design (split monoblock with a bit of angle, not much space in-between). I had some slight pain on occasion but largely viewed many users on here doing more ‘preventative’ setups.

The recent pain has been making me ask myself again whether to do that approach or go for a more complicated sparatable split design. I’ve used fully split setups before but they weren’t travel-friendly.

seltzered,

Interesting to hear the pop socket helped with the phone! Been meaning to just wean my phone use but may consider that.

Felt like it might be worth sharing this: www.reddit.com/r/…/a_corne_with_aaa_batteries/

One good argument I saw for aa/AAA is that it can be hard to find certain lipo batteries and such in other countries. I think a more important thing is having a keyboard that can also work in wired mode over USB.

seltzered,

There’s a more active discussion in the ZMK discord on pointing devices: discord.com/channels/…/845285481888743434 or click the discord link on zmk.dev See also the trackpoint_builders subreddit.

My personal bias is still using a separate trackpad, but have thought about doing something like a cirque with haptic feedback.

Pointing device options

Hiya all. I was wondering what pointing options there were out there for split ergo keyboards? Looking around, on the face of it there seems to be the Apple Magic Trackpad 2 and well that’s about it. There seem to be plenty of trackballs at various prices but nothing that looks particularly small and nondescript....
