Full size gets in the way for no good reason. TKL is the best. The others force you to do too much weird shit just to get common keys.
Ah yes, because all people need to enjoy what I enjoy
96% gang. Best of both worlds, compact to just slightly wider than a TKL but without any sacrifice.
The best keyboard I managed to find from all keyboards I've ever used (including high end mechanical ones) is.. 96%, keychron q6. Embrace mental disability, it feels so incredibly good

I use the numpad a ton at work. But pretty rarely outside that. Same with the function row I use it a ton at work.
That's why I got a nice 96%. And to save money I carry it to work and back instead of getting two.
I have brain damage :)
I was looking to get a mechanical keyboard. 8bitdo seemed to be recommended by some folks, but they don't have the full-sized one with the 10-key here in Japan. Looks like I'm waiting.
Like so many things, it really depends on what you're doing. I've worked a lot of different jobs, and some absolutely require a numpad and some I've never touched it. What people really need is programmable keyboards. If you need a numpad you don't have to even move your hands if you program it right. Same with function keys. It's better for you long term. So I'd actually suggest a smaller but programmable keyboard for everyone, even if they don't use the numpad, plenty of great features on these keyboards.
My daily keyboard's a 40%.
I also use a keyboard with a numpad. And I have a standalone numpad for rare occasions.
I found exactly one keyboard with oversized keys for my fat sausage fingers, no num pad. I emailed the company to see if they were planning on doing a full sized version, nope. Guess I'm gonna keep making typos.
Could always buy a external numpad and put it to the side. 90% less typos!
