made the alterations to the layout:

brackets have moved to the center, escape to the middle top

it will take me a little while to get used to looking for escape there... the firmware programming key location hasn't changed, bottom left top right... this is where the json and c code for it are:

i love being able to do this... i have a second keyboard, even, it's my backup in case this one fails, that is programmed the same... currently has ugly hand-written legends on the thing but it's identically programmed

and yeah, it will take a little bit for me to get used to the new number positions but this is much more ergonomic, i should find top row easier when programming now

Lmfao you’re insane

this is the machine i compose my shitposts with :)

With this keyboard, you have become my new favorite follow.

Bold move! 😅

i've further modified it because it then became a pain to type { - now there is a right control and right shift button on the right side and accessing the cyrillic and firmware upload mode work from the lightning button as mod key, lightning and bitcoin key makes it go to qwerty for games and lightning and the shift switches to cyrillic layer

i did learn how to do some macro stuff in the C code for it, really need it to do windows-space as well as toggle to cyrillic in one combination

i try not to tinker with the layout too much when it's working well because retraining is downtime, it will probably be a week before i'm fluent with the new number positions and bracket/brace and escape position, but i already know it's gonna be more comfortable doing several things in code

these are things that would make that extra 15 keys so much nicer tho... and really, i wish the space bars were actual 2x1s or maybe better would be to put some texture on them so they are easy to home to, they are pretty much my homing keys now
