Overwhelmed by options of ergo keyboards. Please send help. (lemmy.ca)

I've been wanting to try an ergo split keyboard but there are so many options.

The 3 I checked are Kinesis 360 (https://kinesis-ergo.com/keyboards/advantage360/), Glove80 (https://www.moergo.com/collections/glove80-keyboards) and the Moonlander (https://www.zsa.io/moonlander/).

These below are what I got from watching reviews:

Kinesis is difficult to customize and sometimes has connectivity issues
Glove80 feels cheap
Moonlander doesn't have many keys

Considering the prices, the moonlander is about US$100 cheaper than the others, so feels like a better option.

I am interested in options with keywell, as they feel way more comfortable, but anything will be better since I use a usual non-split keyboard.

What are your opinions/suggestions/experience with these types of keyboards?

Yeah, if it's on a Kbin instance they're called magazines, not communities. Honestly I find Kbin weird because it tries to mix two different organization styles, but whatever. So, for that user it uses an m even though it's originally a Lemmy instance.
