Y'all posting Pain27s today without sharing your keymaps should be a crime lol.
I kind of wanna build one...

My map is a modified version of this http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/88e52a4d19305e6b4a98a5a04fadd52a but with punctuation on combos. That part's a work in progress

I hate how actually functional this seems. It looks pretty similar to the default keymap for the Sweep since you layer switch with homerows. I've been spoiled with 6 layers over the last year and recently started working on 4 layers and its been... a journey this week.

These look amazing, but I have to ask, how do you live without shift and fn? Is it just mapped to key combos?

As long as it's functional for you, it's well worth the time to condense layers. Good luck!

Anything you can't see will be set up on a layer, or as a tap-hold or combo. Shift is a tap-hold on base, but I do have it repeated on layers in strategic places

I test drove it on my Sweep at work today and so far the biggest hickup is my layer hold thumb keys are swapped so I kept hitting my num layer when I menat to hit my first symbol layer. Gonna keep testing over the weekend and see what might need moved around. Its my first time moving away from Miryoku in over a year so its gonna be a trip lol.

NovelKeys has Olivia B sets in aluminum that might come with messed up “enter” keys. Problem solved.

Can someone help me understand why this would be something ANYONE would want to use in real life?

I saw a comment like 2 years ago that basically srated thay the Pain27 is sort of a half meme but also have demo piece on how powerful QMK can be. Its basically "How far can we go?"
I think they are fun in concept but reading these last few posts, some people seem to actually use them as a daily driver.
I personally dig the 40% Club and like seeing what people do with small form factors but for me personally, at least, small boards really only start to excel once you enter the split, column stagger space. I do still like seeing all the smaller boards like QAZes and such though. They are cute lol.

Why do I want this so badly?
