I use split keyboards and finding a mechanical split keyboard without the ortho linear configuration seem to be hard. I just want a mechanical split keyboard with hot swappable keys with staggered (normal) keyboard.
I use a Cepstrum (bought a kit + switches + keycaps and put it together; there's no soldering required, so it's quite easy). I never 3D printed tenting, so it's not quite perfect for normal typing, but for gaming it's fantastic - I don't think I can go back to non low-profile switches.
Does the ultimate hacking keyboard have some kind of encryption to provide security/privacy for wireless connections? I’ve not used a wireless keyboard before.

keeb.io keyboards are the best for that kind of thing.
I ended up going the ortho route and designed my own keyboard (I needed extra columns as all the ergo split orthos end at ; key)
But before that I bought all the non-ortho splits (Kinesis, Goldtouch, etc.)and keeb.io were by far the most versatile. I recommend Quefrency for compact layout (my fav is V3 where you could still customize the bottom row) and Sinc for regular size. I used Quefrency when traveling and Sinc in the office.
Happy to answer any questions!
best I've used since the OG Microsoft Natural kyboards
The Microsoft Natural keyboards were an ergonomic nightmare. The cheap, sliding post keys would have varying resistance depending on how close to the center your finger landed, and how vertically you applied pressure.
Also, the keys were arranged over a hump. The dished design of a Kinesis has much better ergonomics.
