Quest for the tiniest layout
« on: Mon, 15 February 2016, 10:28:40 »
What's the smallest layout you know of? There's 60% (eg. HHKB), 40% (eg. Planck), and I've even seen 35% on DT.

I'm guessing that's approx. 15%.

I think someone posted a 14 key chording layout on r/mk but it was around early last year so it might've disappeared already.
