I bought an Ergodox EZ a few years ago. While I enjoyed it at first, I realized that I was avoiding certain workflows because it lacked arrow and function keys, forcing you to rely on different layers.

I like split keyboards, and I also like thumb clusters, but I’d really prefer something with dedicated arrow and function keys.

Update for future googlers:

I ended up buying the Kinesis Freestyle 2 with the extra wrist rests. It’s not mechanical but I couldn’t justify the extra cost for both an ergonomic and mechanical keyboard.

    Yeah, macs don’t have a printscreen normally. And I can’t find an equivalent. I use greenshot. The win shift s launchs the snipping tool. It’s also an uncomfortable short cut.
    I mean, I can give greenshot a different hot key. So I’m really just whining. Lol

      Macs definitely have a way to take screenshots/snips. I know they do, because before Windows had the snipping tool, this was one thing I was jealous about Mac’s having! Haha
