So my BT keyboard + trackpad is looking worse for wear.

It was cheap and cheerful with a winning form factor. Other KBs came and went, but it survived.

I need a replacement.

It's been used with emacs (DooM) with my tablet and / or phone for a few years, and has a few shortcomings (see yellow sticker).

I now also have a SteamDeck, which is basically an Arch box, and I'd love a BT keyboard with that.

Does anyone have a portable setup they'd like to share?

Also, is there an emacs-y way to lisp my way out of things like:

  • keys being missing (#);
  • ESC being on a function layer?

I use a corne for desktop and mobile. Mine is usb but you can get bt. Diy or prebuilt but it has a reasonable form factor.

I'd love to know how you get on with the corne?

When I got my K8 I planned a corne / lily / sofle / lotus build as a "portable"

Went down the dactyl rabbit hole and printed some mock ups - then ran out of time
