Handheld external keyboard options for iPhone
What I've experimented in the past (none of these lasted very long for me, but hopefully inspirations for you): - stenophone: back front - fistion: back front - clawor - musk (it feels okay pseudo typing on it in a jacket's pocket)

BB Steno
The one feature I’m looking forward to is having the dictionary built in. The Black Pill used here supports adding memory chip; I just need to buy one and figure out how to flash crides/steno firmware on it.

Long time no post to reddit: Daily driven boards
I haven't actually posted to Reddit for a while (other than comments that is), and I thought I should. I've been daily driving these 2 boards for a bit, the Fissure v3.2 and the Fusion. Both boards are fully BLE, and of course following my tradition on using the embedded steno engine.

Can you add Steno as a layer?
You can actually run the code needed for steno completely in firmware. Check out https://github.com/crides/steno.

Introducing the Uncokeeb: a new per-finger chorded keyboard concept prototype for fast typing
Fwiw, that’s a thing, though it’s still in progress. (This says QMK, but there’s def also ZMK work somewhere in there as well.)

Trackswitch Manuform (hyper-ergo Dactyl w/ clickable trackball) in Neovim colors! Full build guide linked in comments.
Good eye! W.r.t the key placement, I was actually inspired by the lalboard, which is an open source version of the DataHand.

Introducing the Trackswitch Manuform: A hyper-ergonomic Dactyl Manuform with a crazy mouse-level shift mechanism (and complete build guide)
Drawing inspiration from the vertical actuations of JesusFreke's lalboard, the keys above and below the home row are positioned such that actuating them involves the continuation of a single motion (i.e. extending or curling the fingers) rather than two separate motions (extending then pressing down or curling then pressing down, as is the case with a conventional flat keyboard layout). Less muscle memory + shorter travel distance = quicker and more comfortable typing!

I designed and built a super-ergonomic trackball-enabled Dactyl Manuform with a crazy mouse level shift mechanism (w/ complete build guide)
It also incorporates some novel features: * Drawing inspiration from the vertical actuations of JesusFreke's lalboard, the keys above and below the home row are positioned such that actuating them involves the continuation of a single motion (i.e. extending or curling the fingers) rather than two separate motions (extending then pressing down or curling then pressing down, as is the case with a conventional flat keyboard layout). Less muscle memory + shorter travel distance = quicker and more comfortable typing! * I've yeeted keys that I find exceed a certain (low) threshold of difficulty to press on a standard ortholinear layout. These include the (QWERTY) n and b keys, as well as all the keys outwards from the pinky column. * To make up for this lack of keys, the left side of this keyboard features a powerful thumb cluster with five keys (four of which are vertically actuated: one by the base of the thumb (actuated by curling the thumb inwards), two by the tip of the thumb (actuated by extending the thumb upwards), and another by the thumb knuckle (actuated by moving the thumb outwards)) that allow for fast level-shifting. * The right side incorporates a trackball mount with a mechanism (consisting of a switch mounted underneath the trackball) that allows the trackball itself to act as a "switch" that can be pressed down to both enable mouse movement and activate the mouse button layer. This means that you don't have to press any buttons to enter the mouse layer before using the trackball -- the action of pressing down the trackball (and thus activating the trackswitch) shifts into the mouse layer. I refer to this collective assembly as the "trackswitch". * Both the trackswitch and trackball sensor have fully parameterized mounts with mounting mechanisms that allow their distance from the trackball to be micro-adjustable. * Fully parameterized case mounts for the arduino micro and pro-micro MCUs.

Working on a new thumb cluster for my keyboard
Have you ever looked are https://github.com/JesusFreke/lalboard ? Adopting thumb clusters from there might work.
- Has anyone attempted to build a lalboard

Introducing the Uncokeeb: a new per-finger chorded keyboard concept prototype for fast typing
On the hardware side you could use switches like in the lalboard which is modeled after the DataHand. All keys use a pair of magnets to provide the clickiness and key return force, and an IR LED and phototransistor for detecting a keypress. It would be a large change on the hardware side but good to be aware of as an option as this design is reminiscent of those two keyboards.
