I’ve taken it too far haven’t I?
Can you Alt+F4 with one hand? If not, it’s a yes from me.
This comment made me feel uneasy, claustrophobic even :D
Not sure if this is bragging or a call for help
Somewhere in the middle? More of late night realisation than anything else.
What do you plan to do with the extra 17 switches that aren’t necessary for morse code?
So one half is for typing in t9, what does the other half do ?
I like the little Ferris!
Nahh, 2 half numpads is, still, like, nearly double the number of fingers you have, so waay overkill with all that finger movement
@hannadryad Yes.
I see the reasoning for everything else, but no thumb keys makes no sense to me.
I totally agree. I was focusing on getting the positioning of symbol layers and such right, and I wanted that to be independent of the number of thumbkey so when I add thumbkeys back in (say for weteor/grumpy) the core layouts will remain the same.
I wish I could join the under-20-keys gang. What are you running with tho? KMK?
Personally I’m not sure it’s worth it longer term. 5x3+2 is my preference but I’m doing this to sort my layers so I can try some of the unibody split keyboards that have less keys to go round.
Eh, I don’t get it at all so I can’t judge. I feel like even a 104 key-layout is kinda lacking, a keyboad just doesn’t seem like the right place for minimalism to me.
So one button is for key, all other are layers?
Bit too low for me but interesting. I think ditching pinky column completely is too much, I’d rather go 3*4+2 per hand minimum.
What’s the layout?
It’s my own layout starting from Colemak DH with the “missing” outer keys on another layer.
Yeah I’m doing it to establish a common layout for my symbol / number / navigation layers more than anything else, so I can expand from there to some 28 and 30 key keyboards as well as the Ferris Sweep with some consistant muscle memory.

This is mine (I have few changes tho) if you want some inspiration :) it’s 34 based on Canary layout.
I really love small format but I struggle with chords misfiring. But it’s a good mix of one shot (shift and symbol layer) with hold (navigation) layers. I think I couldn’t go lower without sacrificing typing speed.
