such a pretty blue, I have the Q6 and I love the blue color of it. I may have to swoop one of the Q2 models tbh

I need to try an Alice layout at some point, as well as a split layout. How long did it take you to adjust to the Alice layout, and do you find it takes time to re-adjust yourself when forced to use a regular layout?

Yes! Iā€™m obsessed with Severance. The title of my post was a huge tip to the show. The song Daydream in Blue is played during credits at the end of episode 2. Iā€™m equally obsessed with the song. Currently on my third watch through of Season 1. I have a Lumon desk pad and other accessories arriving soon. :) :) :)

Please tell me this is a reference to I Monster. Neveroddoreven is such a great album. Fun fact, it's also a palindrome! Sick board BTW

It was really quick!
For context, I have a Moonlander, Keyboard.io Model 01, Kenesis Advantage, Matias ErgoPro, and other non-split/divided boards.
One of the things I love about it is using the left space bar as backspace. I've always thought it was really silly to have a loooong spacebar that we only use the ends of. The modifiers are easier to use in combination than, say, the Moonlander, and require less movement off homerow to use them.
The only thing that's a bit odd is the 6 key is on the left hand (not really a problem), and there are PgUp, PgDn, and Home keys, but no End key. Solved that by making Home be the End key on layer 1 (accessed by holding down the right space bar). I also have Home, Left, Down, Up, Right, End on what would be HJKL; on that layer (I use Dvorak, so the letters are different, but doesn't matter).
It also has a volume knob :-) Press to play/pause, rotate for volume.

Really no problem to switch back and forth between, say, Q10 Alice and K3 Pro. Your brain just learns it. I do occasionally hit Space with my left thumb when I meant backspace. No biggie.
We humans are remarkable at such adaptations. I used to have a '72 Harley Sportster and a '97 Sportster. The foot controls (brake and gear shift) were opposite between the two. I adapted and didn't have to think about it. Car pulled out in front of my once, and I grabbed clutch, front brake, and stomped everything :-)
