My daily keyboard's a 40%.

I also use a keyboard with a numpad. And I have a standalone numpad for rare occasions.

Like so many things, it really depends on what you're doing. I've worked a lot of different jobs, and some absolutely require a numpad and some I've never touched it. What people really need is programmable keyboards. If you need a numpad you don't have to even move your hands if you program it right. Same with function keys. It's better for you long term. So I'd actually suggest a smaller but programmable keyboard for everyone, even if they don't use the numpad, plenty of great features on these keyboards.

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 need my 60% to stop my mouse bumping into my keyboard. Pains of a slow sens

I love my Moonlander. I'll never go back.

I’m surprised by the love here for the number pad! I saw mainly benefits for getting a 60 or 65% when I was considering a keyboard kit:

• More space for moving my mouse to the left. I play FPS games with a pretty low sensitivity, and I used to flick my thumb into my keyboard.
• More portable. My keyboard can connect with Bluetooth or usb-c so it’s nice to be able to use with a tablet
• Less switches to lube and install when I assembled it
• No redundant keys, though I had to learn traditionally typing numbers. But now I don’t have to move my hand position to type them.

I do prefer vim for text editing, so I have less use for some of the special keys. But they’re still nice to have for shortcuts or keybinds.

I went from 65% to 60% and am very happy!

60% is excessive

For my own mental health I can only see the full and the tkl.

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 dont 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?

I use the numpad a ton at work. But pretty rarely outside that. Same with the function row I use it a ton at work.

That's why I got a nice 96%. And to save money I carry it to work and back instead of getting two.
