I guess my main question would be whether it makes sense to get this over any of the DIY (or other) flat low-profile QMK keyboards out there?
From what I remember, the price is somewhat steep on these things? That much steeper than putting together your own?
Depends on if you are willing to assemble the keyboard yourself or want something consumer ready I guess
Yep. THere's also how picky you want to be with the layout. For instance, I really would prefer a lower pinky-finger column than was provided on the Voyager and many other keyboards, whereas something like the Kyria is much more likely to be comfortable for me on that front.
The web-based Oryx configuration tool from ZSA is also pretty nice. As much “fun”/fun it was to learn ZMK and the process to update my Corne config, Oryx makes it very simple. Click, click, compile, flash…..and get on with your business.
Well, I use Vial on my Piantor, which is pretty great and even that flashing-step is not necessary anymore.
