Im on the same boat with my Charachorder, it requires quite the commitment (they say 1 month to be at qwerty level training every day), but I found out that I have short thumbs and the Charachorder has 2 joysticks per thumb and I almost didn't reach the second joystick

For now goes to the box again and... Maybe one day when I retire

Hah, I hear you. I'm not a fan of keyboards that require a lot of thumb work. It's not very comfortable to use I find.

If you are ever looking for something split that doesn't require much thumb work the GergoPlex is great. It's tiny and the keys are super light. Which is why it has simple chords across the columns where pressing two keys at once is mapped to things.

The learning curve is really the big downside.
