It was a real game changer for me. If you combine it with layers for accessing numbers, arrows, symbols, home/end etc without moving your hand, it makes typing so much comfier and faster
I have some 60% keyboards. The layers make me slow and they're not very comfortable. But everyone keeps saying they're amazing, so I'm waiting for it to click.
Tbf most of my layer toggles are happening with a thumb, which isn't possible on a normal keyboars because they give you a 10x wide key for your most flexible digit, and no other keys in reach.
I recommend a keyboard with at least 3 keys in the thumb cluster. Once you figure out what you like and get used to it, it's like a superpower
I can actually believe that. Especially in comparison to hunting for th Fn key for all of the layered keys.
