r/olkb is a subreddit with 63k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is large in size.
Hardware and software maker community based around ortholinear or ergonomic keyboards and QMK firmware.
This started as a help & update subreddit for Jack Humbert's company, OLKB (originally Ortholinear Keyboards), but quickly turned into a larger maker community that is DIY in nature, exploring what's possible with hardware, software, and firmware.
