Try some Cherry profile keys on your Octagon and use some support under its front to lowered its angle to check if the inclination and the profile of the caps are causing you the RSI. In my experience zero inclination makes the best for typing and for ergonomics.
The RSI came into being suddenly one day, but not even with the Octagon! It was when I was lazily typing while laying down in bed with my laptop in front of me. Typing in a prone position is probably the dumbest thing, but yep.
I was using my Infinity keyboard and pretty bad form, and then suddenly I get this odd annoying pain in my thumb. Gah, stupid me.
I hope it goes away! It's been about a month and a week now.
The Infinity keyboard has a very harsh type feel, which is actually kind of pleasant until you realize it's not being nice to your joints and muscles.
The bent case, for some reason, creates a type feel that is stiffer than anything I've ever tried.
Yeah I don't think SA works too well when you've already got such a steep angle
Yeah, I heard it works best on a flat board, but it was more of a thematic choice for the Octagon, as I felt the Jukebox set would fit it really nicely. For the second Octagon, I'm definitely going with Cherry profile thanks to GMK SNES being around the corner. That should be perfect. SA hasn't really bothered me though.
