slhello05:05
vkoskivHello!05:05
sli read somewhere, and now i can't find where, that a more pc-like keyboard layout was being designed for the reform05:05
slcan someone please link me to this information if you know about it05:05
vkoskivI remember the same, but I have no link05:05
sl:)05:06
slover a long period of time i am more or less adjusted to the existing layout, but i still find pc layout more comfortable05:06

joschthe keyboard in the upper right hand corner of this photo might be the one with traditional stagger: https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/110/118/075/805/522/927/original/1ecabb94cd2820f8.jpeg08:19
BoostisbetterI don't consider myself a super hero but the Reform keyboard isn't that different from a standard stagger. A fee minutes with and I was good enough to use it. A bit more and I am good.08:30

joschBoostisbetter: I agree with you, but I don't think anybody would've complained at all if the original keyboard had a normal staggered layout. As I understood it, the decision for the original layout was one based on cost of the keycaps, see:09:47
joschhttps://mntre.com/reform-irc-logs/2023-01-29.log.html#t02:06:0409:47
joschSo some people will have issues with the original layout but you and me would've been fine with both. So if there was enough $$ then having the staggered layout from the start would've made everybody happy.09:48

c-keen[m]I like the way it is tbh11:12
Boostisbettersame. I have just gotten used to it. 11:12
BoostisbetterI use a bunch of different keyboards though, so might just be accustomed to using different layouts. 11:13
joschi'm not saying that i don't like the way it is (i do) but i wouldn't have minded either way11:13
Boostisbettersame. The ortholinear layout of the pocket is my squeeze though. I really think it is going to be a joy to type on. 11:13
joschsomehow the OCD-part of me really appreciates that this keyboard only has two types of keys ;)11:13
Boostisbetteryep! 11:15

BoostisbetterSo how do we feel about Matrix protocol here in this ICQ channel?12:43
pandora[m]u can just bridge it to your matrix server ... i think most irc servers even offer this by default12:46
pandora[m]i just matrix for example12:46

joschBoostisbetter: ICQ? ;)13:20
pandora[m]You should be able to join this channel through matrix by using #mnt-reform:libera.chat13:25
Boostisbetterjosch: sorry IRC. 13:34
BoostisbetterI am more referring to whether it is good. Not whether it can do bridging.13:35
