Question for my techy friends:
I’m looking for a keyboard that I can use that’s ergonomically comfortable for folks with carpal tunnel, and would be good for me when my hands are in pain from RA.
The mechanical keyboards I built for myself years ago are not doing it for me anymore…
I know of some split keyboard options but honestly that’s not the best choice for me because sometimes I have to type with one hand or use a mixture of one handed typing + dictation.
Any recommendations? Oh! And it needs to be universal, I switch between my Mac and PC setup at my desk constantly. Ty! 😊
