Hey all, I type all day as many of us do and I’ve been finding some pain in my wrist and tingling in my fingers lately and want to know the best keyboard I can throw my favorite switches into and try to avoid/mitigate these symptoms. Hoping to keep it under $200 and I’ve never sodered before but willing to try it if the kits well laid out.

    No keyboard will fix this issue or mitigate carpel tunnel. You need to start wrist stretches and exercises every few hours to stop it from getting worse.

    I believe this video and a few others are what I found to work in the past. Stretching and strengthening your muscles will be better in the long run. https://youtu.be/n26CXK6xZek

      I disagree. I had bad Carpal tunnel. and eventually the pain was moving up my arm and side of face. The M3000 sculpted shape made a huge difference combined with vertical mouse. It is no longer an issue for me. Any keyboard that tents up to put wrist closer to the handshake angle instead of flat and a backward also a backward tilr removes a ton of wrist pressure on the nerve tunnels.
