Very similar vibes to the dactyl, if you're feeling handy and interested in a little DIY...

The Dactyl gives Kinesis vibes, you mean! :^)

Kinesis has been around since the early 90s making keyboards like this.

Maltron was first, 1976

And barely innovating.
Dactyl is quite a high bar for "a little DIY" ;)
There are a good number of people who sell pre-builts for reasonable prices (e.g. https://bastardkb.com/), but these are often one-person endeavors, and with part shortages, they've been out of stock a lot recently.
