Hey all, I just purchased a Moonlander and after using it for a day, I unplugged it and packed it back up because I noticed my muscle memory on my laptop was already deteriorating!

I want to be an ergomech user, but I also need to frequently use my laptop by itself with a standard keyboard. Is it possible to keep my muscle memory for both? Have any of you had success switching back and forth between a split ergo and a standard keyboard?

Any advice or reassurance is appreciated. This was a massive purchase for me and this issue has me very disheartened at the moment.

    I use a QWERTY layout on my moonlander and I don’t have any problems switching between it and my laptop. As others have said, it can take me a minute or two for the muscle memory to come back, but then I’m fine afteer that.

    My only issue is that I purposefully removed CAPS LOCK from my moonlander and I keep accidentally hitting it instead of TAB on my laptop. But that’s a me issue and not a huge problem.
