This is my sixth keyboard (fourth custom). The experience has been extremely good considering the mostly stock setup.

Though I am going to stick with this for a while, I do know my next will be a split ergo. Do share your suggestions for a wireless split ergo.

i've got a split ortho keyboard called corne (you can check my post history for assembly and final result pics), and for a split ergonomic keyboard i'd strongly recommend going for a wireless version (if available) and i wouldn't recommend ortho layout unless you're super committed (if you ever type on smth like a laptop, switch back and forth between ortho and non-ortho is a huge pain, while switching between split and non-split is perfectly fine)

You bring up the right concerns.

I am aware of the pains with switching to an ortholinear layout, and have experienced it when I briefly used a friend’s Sofle. Unfortunately, most of the open source designs are ortholinear.

A layout similar to Corne is what I have in mind as well as I hope to reuse most of my existing keycap sets.
