Title: Mechanical keyboard with specific compact layout

ziabice 4 Jul 2021

Hi!
I like mechanical keyboards but, you know, it's an expensive hobby.

I'm in love with the layout of the [GMMK PRO](https://www.pcgamingrace.com/products/glorious-gmmk-pro-75-barebone-black-reservation): do you know of less expensive alternatives with same layout and maybe Linux compatibility (programmability)?

The point here is that I want the arrow keys and the PGUP/DN keys in a vertical row separated from the rest of the keys, because I tried some compact layout like the one of the cheap Ajazz AK33 (82%) but is too tight and I do loot of mistakes typing.

Any help is very appreciated!

Hello ziabice

I am very happy with my two keyboards: Atreus 42 and Atreus 44. Moving my right thumb I move to a new layer where you have the buttons as you like.

Here you can check the official page of the Atreus 44 from Keyboardio and you can think what
you can do with layers:

Also I made a gift to a friend, a ducky one 2 sf and he is very happy.

Enjoy!
