Chocofi with Sea Picro (RP2040), how to figure out `matrix_pins` during `qmk compile`?
I'm having a lot of trouble to set up my chocofi bought from beekeeb.

Soldering temperatures for RGB diodes
I am not sure if I expressed myself correctly. Take a look at chocofi keyboard; the microcontroller is not covered by anything. What is my concern here then? I use lead-free solder and I clean the flux with rubbing alcohol.

Wireless Chocofi Build Questions
I decided to upgrade from the ferris sweep that I built not too long ago to a wireless chocofi. I did some quick maths and saw that it would be cheaper for me to order the parts myself rather that buying a kit online, and as my parts have been coming I decided to check on the PCB. I used the gerber from https://github.com/pashutk/chocofi when placing my order, and the image on the github page shows a chocofi with a battery (I assume its wireless.) but looking at the gerber file I dont see a space on the board for an on off switch? I am new to wireless builds and have been trying to find resources online but wasnt able to find much at all. Any insights would be appreciated, thanks!

Corne, but with a wider thumb cluster and stronger column stagger?
There are a few things that are close: * The Cantor/Piantor: more aggressive stagger and slightly changed thumb cluster. * The Swept Corne: essentially a big sweep. * The Hillside 46/48: This comes in many forms which are very similar to what you are looking for. Essentially an extra aggressive stagger (and perhaps splayed) Corne with a bigger thumb cluster.

Cheapest way to try Miryoku style layout
Depending on how comfortable you are ordering PCBs yourself, the Cantor (https://github.com/diepala/cantor ) or the Cheapino (https://github.com/tompi/cheapino ) might be a good starting point for getting into split keyboards, both are diodeless, so you only need to solder the switches and use relatively cheap microcontrollers

My corne swept with handmade oak case
The Corne caught my eye first, but I ended up starting with a Cantor, which has more stagger, like OP's keyboard. It didn't work for me. The Corne works better for me.

What are the best designs to cheap out? E.g. Reviung34 only needs 1 controller.
Cantor by DiePala, Choc, diodeless, cheap “Black pill” mcu, requires two. Caseless/plateless. Pcb is reversible, but you’ll need trrs cable and Jack.

Adding millmax to non-swappable PCB
I have 2 hand-wired keyboards with cherry style switches, and I decided to build a Cantor (diodeless, Corne-like with more pinky stagger) to try a PCB build and the Kailh choc v1 switches for a first time.

Does the Lily58 have the same floating PCB problem of the Sofle?
several of the low-profile / Choc boards (ex. Cantor) go the plateless and caseless route with nothing more than rubber bumpers on the bottom of the PCB
