Just curious…

Are there people here who have an ergonomic keyboard (e.g. at work), but also use a laptop often that does usually not have an ergonomic keyboard?

Does it work? Does it feed good? Or will it be harder for me to hit the keys when switching the device between work and private time?

    It all depends on how much you type on each. If you usually type a lot on both of them, you’ll get used to it fairly quickly, easier than with keyboards that have extremely similar setups but with differing placement of Ctrl, Fn and various Shift keys.

      How do you deal with the size constraints? I have an ergonomic keyboard but don’t use it cause it takes too much space on the desk

        For a small desk just big enough for a laptop, ergonomic keyboards aren’t an option. However, if you have a large desk but still can’t fit a nice keyboard, consider decluttering to create more space.

          Alright fair. It does cause an issue though cause the keyboard pushes the laptop back and then it’s hard to see the screen lol. I’ll rearrange things and See what I can do, thank you :)
