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 They're both good starting points for checking out what's out there, though the Awesome list can be a bit outdated by now.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

[Steam] Very Positive Indie Gems Bundle (16,75€/95%)
I build my own, based on redox. https://imgur.com/a/Cr6NXk0 https://imgur.com/a/DYBSGr9 but still in the process of designing something based on a dactyl

Flux Keyboard
I feel like you're out of the loop when it comes to keyboard nerds. Check out the dactyl-manuform [0]. The days of tiny 40/60 keyboards are gone, they aren't cool anymore (joking of course, use what you want).

Problem with whole column of keys
I followed this wiring diagram: https://github.com/abstracthat/dactyl-manuform/blob/master/resources/dactyl_manuform_right_wire_diagram.png

Dactyl Manuform with Amoeba King PCBs -- Keypresses not detected
I'm trying to hand-wire a dactyl manuform (case printed from this repo) keyboard as my first build. So far, I've wired together the left side of the keyboard, which I am now testing. My keypresses are not picked up by my computer. I would appreciate if anyone could give me more debugging steps beyond what I've done so far!

After over a year of fiddling about she is almost complete..
that's not entirely accurate. It is a derivation of the dactyl-manuform. I used the generator from this project to produce the case. https://github.com/ibnuda/dactyl-keyboard The earliest biuld of the dactyl-manuform that I can find is: https://github.com/abstracthat/dactyl-manuform

Dactyl Manuform Licensing for sale
I have been considering making a few Dactyl Manuform's to sell, but I'm not clear on the licensing involved. The github page lists two licenses, one for the source code, for generating the models which does appear to permit commercial use ( dactyl-manuform/LICENSE at master · abstracthat/dactyl-manuform · GitHub) and one for the generated models themselves, which does not appear to permit commercial use ( dactyl-manuform/LICENSE-models at master · abstracthat/dactyl-manuform · GitHub).

keyboard for wrist pain?
If you are willing to spend some money, a dactyl manuform would be very nice, especially with custom wrist rests. The dactyl are modular and 3d printable, and a lot of people actually make them with trackballs in them, so you wouldn’t need to worry about an ergonomic mouse. Failing that; something like a moonlander might also be a good option.
