If you're interested in split keyboards, check out the Keyboard.io Model 100[1], which will be shipping in January. They're a reputable company, having already successfully sold the Model 01 and Atreus with great success. Jesse and Kaia are great folk and send regular updates on the production.
Why Model 100 over other split boards like the Moonlander or Ergodox? 1. Sculpted keycaps take the ortholinear split board to another level of comfort (and help recognize which keys your fingers are on). 2. It's $55 cheaper than Moonlander. 3. The palm key allows you to layers without having to move your hand. 4. Aesthetics?
I've been using a Model 01 for the past few years and other typing experiences can't compare. I'm waiting for a Model 100 now so I can switch to its better (MX-style) switches.
TIL. ThatIf you're referring to the DCS sculpted keycaps which come with the EZ[2], they're still not quite the same. Keyboard.io Models 01 and 100 use different shapes for (nearly?) every key. At the edges of the keyboard, it's particularly noticeable: the outer edges are ramped inwards.
The downside of individually sculpted caps is, of course, compatibility with other keycap sets.
