Many years ago I had a ThinkPad and I had such a nice workflow using the track point. I had good precision without having to move my hands. Now I’ve moved to a split keyboard (kinesis freestyle edge currently) but I’m wanting to get something similar back....
For a trackpoint version, checkout the buzzard. I also recently added beta-level support for trackpoints to zmk. So you can build a wireless trackpoint split keyboard.
I am also working on a corne clone with trackpoint support.
You can come to the zmk discord pointing-devices channel to discuss the topic with more people.
Just got a choc Sofle and standard red choc switches along with it (50g weight). Compared to the gateron pro reds I have in my Keychron Q1 they don’t feel quite as smooth and snappy. I’d describe them as feeling heavier and sludgy almost… any thoughts on other variants to try? Would choc silvers feel closer to my mx style...
