Made some design updates based on feedback I received from a couple fellow keyboard designers and I just received the first two prototypes this week. Super happy with how they turned out.

I still wonder how anyone would remember and adjust to all these key combos, since there are no labels for them.

I imagine having to look up each character on a large A2 poster.

The same way creative professionals learn keyboard shortcuts for software like Blender, Photoshop, or Premier: practice.

It seems daunting, but honestly it's not that difficult to adjust to using layers or chords on a smaller keyboard, especially when you can assign all those inputs to any key combo you want.
