I’ve been looking at the voyager for close to a year now and I chose to order it. But now that I’m about to order it, I’m considering maybe getting a corne keyboard instead. This will be my first ever split keyboard and I’m very excited to get it and start the journey and I know a Corne has less keys which will make the switch even harder but I’m up for it. Now I just want some advice if anyone has tried both and can help me make the decision easier. I just found that having 3 thumb keys on the corne instead of 2 on the voyager would make things easier to navigate but feel free to correct me if that’s not the case. Any information can help!
Haven’t tried the voyager but did try a corne and missed the number row.
I use vim so make heavy use of the symbols. My brain just couldn’t click with the layering I had to do.
I moved onto a lilly58 which I preferred for programming before ultimately building a dactyl.
Think it depends on your primary use case to be fair. I could type general text fine with the corne but missed the extra symbol keys for coding.
Home row mods on whichever one you go for is probably worth a look!
