I'm using kinesis advantage for 7-8 years. However, I get pain in right thumb(because of using thumb clusters I guess) from time to time. Recently I got a chance of using Goldtouch keyboard(for some days) and I liked it a lot.
1. It's tent/tilt angle is higher than kinesis and I found it much more comfortable to use
2. I didn't get pain on my right thumb. Though thumb keys convenience is missed, I think I can adjust to keyboard without the thumb cluster at this point.
However, there are some disadvantages with goldtouch keyboard.
1. Staggered key layout. I would prefer something like kinesis
2. Not enough customization. Ex: Can't assign different behavior for left space alone. Tried software like karbiner elements, but many limitations seems to be at hardware level.
Is there any keyboard with these requirements
1. Higher tenting angle(similar to goldtouch or more. Around 30 degrees)
2. Non staggered layout
3. Pre-built (Don't have the knowledge/capability of building one)
4. More customizable (Assign different functionalities to keys etc)
5. Mech (not 100% required, but preferred)
Thanks in advance for the help
