just to chime in on alternative keyboard layouts:

I’m german and can’t recommend the neo2 family of layouts enough.
I currently am using the “noted” layout and it feels absolutely amazing.

The different layer approach makes it easy to write all the symbols for programming I need, or if you are a writer, all the »correct« „quotation“ marks.
there’s even support for all the greek letters used in math equations: ℤℵ×∀ℂΣ∫∃∇ℕℝ∂ΛΦΨ

You can learn more about the layout here (site is in german):

30, german, yes I can, no I do not. I drive a hybrid, so no manual transmission.

• Speed Cubing
• Aggressive Inline Skating
• Magic The Gathering
• Misc. Video Games
• Self Hosting
• Historical European Martial Arts (Swordfighting with a Longsword especially)

Those are the ones for me. Yeah turned 30 this year as well. No Autism (probably) but have ADHD.

Programming is my job, so I don’t define that as a hobby 😅

I personally love the feel of the MoYu RS3M MagLev. And I think it was like 15 bucks.

And don’t be afraid to go to chinese distributors like ziicube.com Saves a lot of money by going directly to the source and buying in bulk if you can, to alleviate shipping cost.
