𝑥MK: Use programmable keyboard firmware with any keyboard.
With QMK Kernel Module one could skip MCU altogether and just use one Linux SBC. But sadly that module is not maintained.

Designing a even more esoteric music tracker than the Dirtywave M8 using the ardux.io layout
Currently I'm trying to get the qmk linux kernal module up and working properly. Is there any recent projects or documentation on using a rpi0 for keyboards? I could write out a device tree program, but that would be a pretty big headache.

Hijack QMK output?
My ideal scenario here would be to just use a pi 0 as the controller fully, but from what I can tell, the only real options for that are attempt to extend/iterate the kernel module that u/jackhumbert wrote for fun as it isn't feature complete qmk or write something in circuitpython or similar. Given the choice I'd rather not reinvent the wheel and just have full fat qmk on tap.

Key remapping to vim navigation and more
I use keyd (https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd) and what I've done is remapped CapsLock down holding to a modifier key that allows me to use vim navigation and more. So when I press CapsLock down I can use jkl; for navigation. I've also added u and i as page up and down. For browser back and forward use n and m. Just pressing CapsLock acts as an esc press.

Debugging touchpad issues with keyd remapper
I recently started using Asahi Linux on my M1 mac. I installed Fedora 39 Server and I use sway as my wm but these issues with keyd https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd appear even before I start sway.

Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
This is great. Is it possible to somehow use it with keyd, as I don't use autohotkey?

Espanso incompatible with keyd key remapping
I'm using both [keyd](https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd) to remap some keys (Hold Capslock -> Hold Ctrl, and Press Capslock -> Press Esc) and espanso to insert some snippet.

Toward a More Useful Keyboard
On Linux, I use keyd[1] and while I understand that keyd itelf could never run on the Mac, I'd love something that could take my keyd conf and make it work (even approximately) on the Mac.
