I think having a split keyboard so my mouse can be in the middle would really help my comfort at the desk. Is there a style that doubles up the middle keys? My typing style means sometimes I use my right hand to hit T, left to hit Y, etc.

Is this a style already, or would I need to build my own?

I am completely new to this domain and would appreciate advice from knowledgeable enthusiasts.

    As a fellow left-handed split keyboard enthusiast, do what you want. The Ergodash is probably about as close as you’re going to get to what you’re looking for.

    Yeah the Ortho layout is a bit different and you won’t get your number overlaps, but it could allow you to do what you are looking for and then change it in the future if you decide you’d rather have other keys there instead of letters.

    Also as a person who’s job entails typing all damn day, the change in layout has removed a significant amount of hand fatigue I used to get from regular staggered boards.
