I Recently found out that my work has a benefit where they give you a couple hundred dollars to improve your health somehow. Gym, massage, Ergo stuff, ect. I want o put it towards an Ergo Mechanical Keyboard.

I have seen LinusTechTip’s video on the Moonlander and I think it is for me (love the white, ortho linear, and split). But are there other things you folks would recommend that I check out?

Thank you for your time!

    I’d only consider the Moonlander if you have large hands. I have very average male hands and the Moonlander thumb cluster was quite painful. It’s far away and the keys are angled weirdly. Other good prebuilt options, from close to a regular keyboard to ticks off all ergo features:

    • Kinesis Freestyle Edge RGB
    • Dygma Raise
    • Keyboardio Model 100
    • Kinesis Advantage
    • MoErgo Glove80

    My experience is that once you go ergo, you’ll end up wanting all features, so you’ll save yourself a lot of money by immediately buying a Kinesis Advantage or Glove80.
