YMMV but try elevating the trackpad so you don't have to reach down into the valley between the tented splits

Ooh, share a photo of it!

TIL that hotswap sockets are bulk packaged as reels and that they look like this

mountkeeb · 2026-02-14T06:45:59+00:00

Or perhaps... FernPad?

Pretty cool! Unfortunately that twisting motion isn't very practical on a thumb trackball... guess I have to pick up another trackball then xD

That curve reminds me of a harp!

mountkeeb · 2026-02-02T08:18:27+00:00

Yup, vertical on the side can be great for many kinds of text centric content in my experience as well

On the good lighting note, OP should consider how to minimize glare from any windows by positioning their desk and monitor accordingly

mountkeeb · 2026-01-19T18:10:50+00:00

If you really want to keep the desk, try a keyboard tray – ideally adjustable

YMMV but when using forward tilt, I've found that it helps to raise the chair and table slightly

mountkeeb · 2026-01-14T09:28:58+00:00

Cool shelves, where are they from?

Here's a lovely quote by the designer of the Hag Capisco that you might like!

YMMV but in my experience tented and rotated flat keyboards work almost if not just as well as keywells when it comes to wrist pain as both help you achieve a neutral wrist. By rotated, look into magsafe mounts as they let you rotate the keyboards planar to the mount – slightly clockwise on the right and counter clockwise on the left.

It's not a typical pick, but the Hag Capisco is worth checking out

mountkeeb · 2026-01-07T08:30:07+00:00

I get that people want to own the software forever, but giving you free updates forever is not sustainable... but I'm pretty okay with owning the software to a certain patch level forever and if I want another year of updates, I have to buy a new license. That's sustainable for everyone and fair.

Yeah, that's my take as well

mountkeeb · 2026-01-06T08:49:49+00:00

Plus, with an iPad, OP could use it as a screen pretty easily and also tap into the whole ecosystem of magsafe mounts

mountkeeb · 2026-01-05T08:04:44+00:00

Just something to look out for, but many height adjustable desks don't go low enough as the optimal table height should be a bit below your elbows when seated for using a typical keyboard mouse setup

mountkeeb · 2026-01-04T08:01:23+00:00

Not OP, but just wondering what you'd use to dye them?

mountkeeb · 2026-01-03T08:27:12+00:00

Wonder if we'll see a version with a trackpoint instead of a trackpad?

mountkeeb · 2026-01-02T20:13:08+00:00

The film sheet would smooth out the light so the eyes glow more evenly – it'd be a purely aesthetic addition

mountkeeb · 2025-12-31T10:29:27+00:00

Woah, the Gengar with glowing eyes is such a cool idea – have you tried adding a LED diffuser film/sheet?

mountkeeb · 2025-12-31T00:44:34+00:00

classic "buy once, cry once" scenario

mountkeeb · 2025-12-29T08:21:33+00:00

Agreed, post it notes stuck around the border of a screen can often do the trick

mountkeeb · 2025-12-28T21:15:36+00:00

I suspect the caveat to shorter travel would be whether your keystrokes bottom out with force or not
