Hey,

I’m looking for a portable ortholinear for taking to co-working in my backpack.

For context, I’m a coder. I use neovim all day. At home I use a maltron 3d. It’s a fantastic comfortable keyboard (I think kinesis nicked the design?), although it did take getting used to.

It’s the only keyboard I’ve ever been able to touch type on.

So yeah. I’d like to find something similar that is portable. It has to have quiet switches, as it’s a shared office. Any suggestions?

So far I’ve looked at:

Those all look nice, but are too expensive.

How does the ergodox ez hold up these days?

    Ah, it says on their website that the first revision was developed in 1976:

    The first keyboard, (top image), was shown at the News Tec exhibition, Brighton, in December 1976

    The thumb cluster was different back then, but the ortholinear scoop was there.
