    If you like the key wells, definitely the Glove80. I have recently received my Glove80 (also coming from an Advantage2) and it is fantastic. They are available with Choc Red, Brown, White, and Pro Red, support tenting and use ZMK.

    I like my ergodox, but I don’t think anyone would call it low profile. How do/did you like the Kinesis? I’ve been interested in them for years, but can’t wrap my head around the price. And I can’t help thinking I’d be typing the top row with my fingernails.

      Not OP, but I’ve used both the 2, the Dactyl, the ergodox, and now daily drive the 360. I think it is an incredible experience if you’re willing to shell out the price tag. I decided to get it because it truly is my endgame and I won’t be desperately experimenting with other boards (but I still will… because I enjoy the hobby lol, but its nice to have one that I am confident just works for me).

      TBH, I personally don’t use the top row. I’ve mapped mine to use a 3x5 layout mostly, the top row is just there when there’s a symbol I’m really struggling to type. But I have in the past and I do find it comfortable to use despite having smaller than average hands (the ergodox is way too big for me, for example).

        Thanks for the reply. Now I’m going to be fighting the urge to buy a 360. I think I can talk myself out of it because I have big hands and that is one of the things that I like about the Ergodox. The Kinesis keyboards just look so well made though.

    I really love the look of Glove 80. But, tax and shipping to Europe comes to a really expensive package. But, that’s more or less a perfect keeb.

      The Glove80 Discord has a buy-sell channel, there are also regularly keyboards sold in Europe (which would let you skip tax). It’s also worth looking at local market places. Eg. this week I bought another good as new Glove80 from a Dutch marketplace for 150 Euro (admittedly, I got very lucky, but I do see good ergo keyboard deals every now and then).

    I’m a big fan of the LP Corne. The LP Kyria is also a good option IMO. Also the Glove80 has low profile keys and a curved keywell.

    SliceMK has an ErgoDox variant that is wireless and low-profile using choc v1 switches. Disclaimer: I’ve been daily-driving one of their ErgoDox Wireless Lite keyboards for about 9 months. But I like the ErgoDox physical layout – been using one on a nearly daily basis for the past 9 years.

    Something that’s a bit lighter, and less bulky. I would still prefer some tenting, or curve.

    I can’t have my arms completely flat on the desk for longer stretches of time.
