Top is Das Pro 4, bottom is ErgoDox EZ

Love the customization and quickly learning to love the split keyboard. The non-staggered keys are going to take me a long time to get used to. I’m struggling with the bottom row and outer-edge keys the most.

Still happy with it but it’s going to be a while before I can use it at work or for anything useful.

Edit*** Already doing a lot better! To be fair, this was an easier sentence…

    Took me about a few weeks to get really used to the columnar layout on my moonlander. However, I sat down one night early on and banged out my config and practiced with ZSA’s learning tools and found it immensely helpful. Got me like 90% of the way there pretty quick. I try to retain the typing the same form on staggered layouts now, but it’s still a context switch. Good luck!

    Enjoy! It took me quite a while to get used to the columnar layout on my Moonlander, but it’ll come with use. Just force yourself to stumble though using it and spend some time on the typing exercise websites to train yourself and it’ll come. Before you realize it you’ll be just as fast and accurate as you used to be.
