This is why I wish “southpaw” keyboards would become more mainstream. If you’re right-handed, having the numpad on the left makes way more sense ergonomically.
My old keyboard was a cheap $30 membrane one, and it was a painted metal plate with a plastic shell on the back for the internals. The edge of it was rounded, but it was still just a single edge, maybe 5mm thick, so I used to give myself bruises trying to flick in FPS games. They were literally just a vertical line on my thumb.
34 keys is all you need. But it’s nice to have a few extra.
Do get a full-sized keyboard if you love bumping your mouse into it and misfiring when the game gets intense, though !
Joke’s on you, I use a trackball.

Upvoted… But I am stuck at 36/miryoku and can’t go less.
