You're doing great. I knew I wanted to try split layouts from the beginning. That's why I went with ID75 which gives me a unibody split.

Gaming on ortho/split shouldn't be too bad as long as you use QWERTY. I wish more games allowed you to switch the keyboard layout so that you can keep the same physical positioning.

I use Colemak. Nonetheless I prefer gaming in Qwerty - not because I dislike rebinding keys, but because I noticed that I use Colemak on muscle memory only (if that description makes sense to you). If the game tells me to "Press F" I'd be confused what key to press on Colemak. It's really weird.

Same here. I also have a QWERTY layer because trying to translate between that an Colemak in real-time while playing a game isn't happening.
