I’m surprised by the love here for the number pad! I saw mainly benefits for getting a 60 or 65% when I was considering a keyboard kit:

• More space for moving my mouse to the left. I play FPS games with a pretty low sensitivity, and I used to flick my thumb into my keyboard.
• More portable. My keyboard can connect with Bluetooth or usb-c so it’s nice to be able to use with a tablet
• Less switches to lube and install when I assembled it
• No redundant keys, though I had to learn traditionally typing numbers. But now I don’t have to move my hand position to type them.

I do prefer vim for text editing, so I have less use for some of the special keys. But they’re still nice to have for shortcuts or keybinds.

The best keyboard I managed to find from all keyboards I've ever used (including high end mechanical ones) is.. 96%, keychron q6. Embrace mental disability, it feels so incredibly good

Over here loving my 60%. It's all about modifier keys y'all. That 60% actually has all the keys your 130% and more all within reach.

For my own mental health I can only see the full and the tkl.

I use a Lily58 for work, and it's excellent. Obviously mine looks much different than the ones on this product page, but it's this layout.

No you don't

I use the numpad a ton at work. But pretty rarely outside that. Same with the function row I use it a ton at work.

That's why I got a nice 96%. And to save money I carry it to work and back instead of getting two.

Southpaw TKL FRL is where real beauty at

96% gang. Best of both worlds, compact to just slightly wider than a TKL but without any sacrifice.

I have brain damage :)

100% correct.

I went from 65% to 60% and am very happy!

75%er here. I'm content.

TKL for the win

I will ask this here maybe somebody got an idea.

I currently have a Corsair K95 with the macro key row to the left, I really want to use a TKL keyboard so I dont bump into it all the time with my mouse. At the same time I would also like to have a numpad are there any keyboards that combine those two things so a row of macro keys and a numpad (southpaw) on the left?
