This is a community about ergonimic keyboards. When I asked if there was a split keyboard that I was thinking of, many people were telling me I need to learn to type; that I type wrong.
You guys have fancy keyboards to make typing more comfortable and less straining on the wrist. Some make the keyboards curved for even more shape optimism.
I wanted a few extra middle keys.
There were kind people. Why were people unkind though? Who wants to learn about something when you are made fun of for the very first question you ask to learn?
There are keyboards with extra middle keys (Kinesis Advantage360 comes to mind), but if you’re typing wrong, there’s no way to soften that blow. Asking people is precisely for the cases when the question makes little sense and should be reframed in a discussion. If you don’t want to hear what you actually need, just Google without asking people.
I mean you joined a niche community that will spend hundreds of dollars and hours building custom ergo shit then you said “fuck all that ergo shit” and the ergo nerds doubled down on it.
Either way, it’s good to see these super awkward interactions on lemmy. Dive into your Errgo keyboard (that’s intentional) and post when you’ve got it built. Follow through and you’ll be a legend. If you go custom and need any modeling done, hmu and I’ll do my best.

I mean this is the Internet, dude. It also happens to be filled with humans.
I’m not asking anyone to solve or explain why meanness exists.
If we were in person and I asked why people were bwing mean, responding with “they’re humans” just avoids thinking about it.
Idk. Have a good day.

I am not trying to die on a hill saying i will never change my typing. I was just trying to say the way it was presented was not helpful.
And the community is still ragging on me. How is that welcome?
I don’t really care. People don’t want to believe my kind intentions. That’s not me.
Have a good day.
Thanks for the keyboard link
