With enough GPIO pins, can I skip diodes?
there is the sweep (https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep). Also there are some sweep variants with 36 keys (https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36)

Ferris Sweep with promicro rp2040 slave not working
Hi guys, still did unable to connect any of the slaves. Tried kmk but no luck as well. In the meanwhile i checked again continuity, which is working for all of the pins (in the TRRS) and also found the schematics for my board if that helps: https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep/blob/main/schematic.pdf

Why hjkl is still default settings for moving around?
Personally I use ferris sweep and I just hold left thumb button to have arrows on right hand and I use them for neovim and helix. Nevertheless you should prioritize minimalising Same Finger Usage (SFI) and comfort, they are most important for speed and to minimize mistakes. Bare minimum, I would remap j to up and k do down, but you can also remap helix function of unei to places of hjkl and think for yourself how would you like to have them placed.

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.

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...

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.
What are some alternatives?
