So it looks like people prefer the Viper to the Eagle. Can someone explain what the mass appeal of the HHKB layout is?
Ctrl and Backspace are in much more optimal locations on the board.
Makes for less finger stretching and imo a more comfortable typing experience.
After using the HHKB for a long time I've also come to prefer the function arrow keys.
When typing on tkl now I feel like using the arrows is a chore.
Everything fits in its own neat little spot on the HHKB and topre is just the icing on top.
But to each his own
