The Topton L4 is finally another laptop with a trackpoint
I converted to Ortho keyboards with column stagger rather than row stagger and I haven't looked back. If you haven't, I suggest checking out /r/ErgoMechKeyboards for some great options. https://kbd.news/ is also a really good resource, as is https://github.com/diimdeep/awesome-split-keyboards.

From WASD to ESDF, wrist and pinky knucklepain?
Check e.g. this github repository for examples of that type of keyboard. Better shell out some $$ and adjust to one of those now than to have tendon/joint/nerve damage for decades.
- [request] Looking for Ortho-split-kbd somewhere between an ergodox and a corne.
- hard to type because of small hands

The Ultimate Guide to Getting Your First Mechanical Keyboard
You should consider adding links to the comparison site for split keyboard kit layouts, and perhaps the list of Awesome Split Keyboards. They're both good starting points for checking out what's out there, though the Awesome list can be a bit outdated by now.
- Most keys on a low-profile split board
-
Where to get started?
Awesome Split Keyboards will give you an idea of how the boards look and links to vendors or open source projects (ie. sending Gerber files to a PCB fabricator of your choice)

Please recommend a beginner friendly custom ergonomic mechanical keyboard.
Apologies for the incorrect image link. I assumed it could be edited afterwards. Btw here is the reference image link: https://github.com/diimdeep/awesome-split-keyboards/blob/master/img/Ergotravel.jpg

Problems with a new low-profile corne
I followed this guide for the build (https://github.com/foostan/crkbd/blob/main/corne-classic/doc/buildguide_en.md)

Nice!view not working when leds are turned on?
Not sure which information you mean, but here goes. Nice!Nano v2 Pinout (shows Arduino pin mapping). Nice!View Getting Started (explains how to remap the CS pin for a non-native shield like Corne). The overlay file where "cs-gpios" is set for the nice_view_adapter in ZMK. If you look at the Corne Schematic, you'll see as shown in the labels in this image that the bottom two pins (B2, B4, B5, B6) don't appear to be used for a column, row, or the OLED header. But the only way to really verify is to pull the KiCAD file for your Corne version and check yourself. I think D0 ("Data") should work. It appears to go to an optional I2C connection.
- Accidentally ripped off solder pad

Corne, but with a wider thumb cluster and stronger column stagger?
Want to say the corne board drawings etc are available at https://github.com/foostan/crkbd as well, if you fancy learning kicad you might be able to tweak them yourself ... though that is definitely the deep end of things...

Frandestein: my first handwired custom keyboard
For the layout, I took inspiration from the CRKBD and the Boardsource's Microdox.

Only one LED works on each side
This is the numbered LED series from the Corne Classic Build Guide (https://github.com/foostan/crkbd/blob/main/corne-classic/doc/buildguide_en.md)

Help needed regarding handwireing
I would need hex file from here https://github.com/foostan/crkbd/blob/main/doc/firmware_en.md and then i need to run flash command . Il read through it one more time, it seems that i use same hex file for both sides.
