Why?


Layerkeys that avoid long stretches. It is just so comfortable. You might have heard how nice hjkl is compared to using arrow-keys, imagine ~that for the entire keyboard.

Straight columns are superior. Think about it, look at your right hand and how the columns aligns with the keys underneath it. Pretty good huh? Now look at your left and you will probably struggle to explain how anyone could ever justify it, it is absolutely horrendous.


A well built ergonomic split keyboard with high quality switches will certainly provide a better experience than two cheap chiclet keyboards placed side by side.

And that's without the auxiliary benefits like freeing up additional desk space, a longer lifespan, and ease of repair.


Because they've all actually been designed to be used in split layout, unlike the Apple magic keyboard.

They're also all (?) mechanical keyboards, which provide a much better typing experience than any Apple keyboard.
