I will ask this here maybe somebody got an idea.

I currently have a Corsair K95 with the macro key row to the left, I really want to use a TKL keyboard so I don't bump into it all the time with my mouse. At the same time I would also like to have a numpad are there any keyboards that combine those two things so a row of macro keys and a numpad (southpaw) on the left?

Update: Mountain.gg has a keyboard like that. They were acquired by be quiet! and they are basically releasing my dream keyboard with the Dark Mount will be grabbing one ASAP. Linux support, hot swappable switches, very modular looks great so far.

Would a separate numpad work in place of a built in one? Only other thing I can think of is Framework's modular keyboard system for their laptops, but that's for a whole laptop instead of a separate keyboard.

I've been using full size my whole life but it seems like TKL is my next logical step because I need more mousing space.

I use my numpad to move and resize windows. A lot of Openbox setups I used utilized the feature, and I try to replicate it on whatever DE or WM I use.

75% + 4x4 macropad

I found exactly one keyboard with oversized keys for my fat sausage fingers, no num pad. I emailed the company to see if they were planning on doing a full sized version, nope. Guess I'm gonna keep making typos.

i love my 60% keyboard. i rebound the caps lock key to be a modifier key that swaps the functions of several keys on the keyboard. i basically have two keyboards stacked on top of each other that i can switch between at will. e.g., when caps lock is held: the number keys turn into Fn keys, WASD turns into the arrow keys, and N, M, < turn into the volume down, mute, and volume up keys, respectively.

i also changed the rgb colors on the keyboard so this is all color coded in case i forget.

I was looking to get a mechanical keyboard. 8bitdo seemed to be recommended by some folks, but they don't have the full-sized one with the 10-key here in Japan. Looks like I'm waiting.

I like my 1800 compact

It's only a problem for games like Arma that have a bums for every damn key.

i have a 65% although honestly i'd rather it be a 75% (which i meant to buy but didn't look closely enough at the keyboard), anyway it's not that bad

i also with the damn apostrophe key wasnt the same as the esc key + fn

I dropped my full sized keychron a while back and the pcb got screwed up at the usb c port, so I'm stuck on a 60%. It's nice to have the extra desk space, but I'd be completely lost if I didn't have a macropad. Even still, it's kind of a pain in the ass sometimes. Eventually I'll be not-broke enough to justify getting a new pcb, hopefully, but I'm not even sure how to order just a pcb from them. Giant pain in the ass.

I do like my little Newman board, though. It has some nice linears that I lubed up and I've got a tape mod on it. I miss qmk but it's better than a membrane at least.

Originally I picked it up to use with my phone so I could get work done on the road without slowing my typing speed to a crawl and grappling with autocorrect. Made a decent backup!
