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.

Home-row mods - will I get used to it?
I had trouble with HMR as well at the beginning, but since switching to sunaku's fork/PR I've almost eliminated all the issues I had with it. And worth mentioning is urob's timeless HMR config from which I think the fork/PR takes some of its inspiration.

Spring Cleaning/Codeing
Affirmative. I updated my fork and my clone last week. I also did a second, fresh clone and merged this PR: https://github.com/manna-harbour/qmk_firmware/pull/56

Help with getting homerow modifiers up and running
Im guessing installing something like this is what i need to do? https://github.com/manna-harbour/qmk_firmware/pull/56

𝑥MK: Use programmable keyboard firmware with any keyboard.
I have a separate system for that as part of this old unreleased project. They're orthogonal so could be used together, but it'd be nicer if they were integrated. If you just want to remap buttons or map buttons to keys you can do that in the OS.

BATTLESHIP ERGO(but dumb?)
Well, things like Bilateral Combinations are aware of which hand is using the modifier to only apply it to the other side's presses & minimise accidental triggering on same-hand rolls.
What are some alternatives?
