Trying to find out how difficult (or not) it will be to switch from iso layout to ansi. Main reason is the much better choice of keycaps that will be available.

Have any of you made the switch ? If so how difficult was it ?

    I suppose it depends on how easy of a time you have mentally switching back and forth between layouts. I do manage somewhat okay when leisurely typing on my Chromebook’s ISO layout keyboard. (as I am doing right now)

    But when I’m in a hurry or otherwise under a lot of mental load then all of the special characters being in different places than I’ve come to expect from using ANSI for work and at the PC… kinda sucks, not going to lie.

    I did keep my ISO Logitech MX Keys just in case but don’t really see myself buying anything but ANSI layout devices from here on out.
    Have to say though I would love to have a bigger that 1u right Alt key though because of all the EurKey shortcuts for äöü߀.
