By design it’s not there. This is replacing the Planck keyboard from their line up to be very minimal on keys, but embracing the split key and ergonomics of the ergodox and moonlander.
The Moonlander (my first foray into ergo keyboards) landed on my doorstep the same day i got the email announcing this. My heart dropped thinking they made Moonlander 2.0 but thankfully it’s just different. I want some tenting and don’t need portable but it does look nice.
Looks nice. A good expensive low-pro for folks who want to go all in without much tinkering or soldering. The thumbs and mods are a little baffling though. If you’re going to include a number row, why not go full maximalist and add a few extra modifiers and make it a traditional 56/58 key layout like the Lily or Sofle? It might look different hands on, but that thumb also seems really far out.
huh, wouldn’t have thought another lily/sofle-like makes sense to offer, but ig i’m too far removed from commercially available layouts to really have a reasonable intuition 😅
If they ever force me to go back to the office, this will be my portable keyboard. The Moonlander is my keyboard for the home office, and can’t imagine going back to a standard keyboard. Wish my Moonlander keycaps had the symbols on number keys and +/- keys caps.
