32 Keys or less; anyone proficient with them? Do you prefer this to boards with more keys? Which board(s) do you like?
I‘ve mained various 30 key boards for over a year now. I find it to be the optimal size to have all keys within easy reach, but without too much combo/layer jumping. You can see my config here: https://github.com/jcmkk3/zmk-config

Fit Colemak-DH on a 26+4 key hummingbird-like layout
No analyzer can really model these things at this point, but I think that you can feel when things are bad. I don't use colemak, but feel free to look at my config/layout. https://github.com/jcmkk3/zmk-config

Ergonomic Keyboards
I feel like any programmable keyboard should be able to be configured to work well with emacs. I personally like having very few keys so that my hands need to move less when typing/navigating. Because I use powerful firmware (ZMK), I still have access to all of the keys that I need. You can take a look at how I configure my keyboard (along with some of my keyboards) here: https://github.com/jcmkk3/zmk-config
