    Holy forking shirtballs, the longer I look at that the worse it gets

    As a PowerShell scripter, having the backtick and pipe keys moved with the escape and delete in their places would just drive me batty

      Yeah, it doesn’t seem like the world’s worst change, but it’s weird that they got rid of the keys near the bottom while splitting Backspace in half.

      Could be worse.

        Is this one supposed to be worse? 'Cause rn it’s marginally better (split spacebar => ~3 keys for each thumb instead of 2.5).

          It depends if you like typing anything on the number row

            Personally, I find layers more convenient. Like numbers on qwerty…, shift+numbers on asdf…, and all that stuff

              I love layers too, caps lock is my escape key/modifier key now and im happy.

              Also, do you like to peck and type your numbers using “Fn”, “Fn1”, “Pn”, the illusive green modifier or all of them at once for capital numbers /s
