Piantor by beekeeb
The keyboard name Piantor (Pi-antor) is the portmanteau of "Pico" and "Cantor". As the name suggested, it has the same strong column stagger layout as the Cantor Keyboard created by u/diepala and is powered by Rasyberry Pi Pico or other compatible RP2040 boards (e.g. WeAct RP2040).
Features
* RP2040 MCU: Low cost yet powerful microcontroller. You can enable a lot of features and layers without worrying about the firmware size limit. Rasyberry Pi Pico is reliable and easy to source too.
* Breakable pinky column: Easily convert the PCB from a 42-key to 36-key layout
* Hotswap (Kailh Choc v1 Hotswap Sockets) or soldered-in low profile choc switches: Experiment with different key switches with the hotswap sockets, or solder the key switches for a more stable build.
* Cantor layout - Ergonomic strong column staggering for short pinkies.
* Diodeless - A more robust build with fewer things to solder or break.

Nijuni by krikun98
The Nijuni (formerly known as the RT-22) is a 44-key split keyboard inspired by the Jian (stagger, pinky and controller footprint) and the Jorne (thumb cluster and wiring).
It was originally conceived by DwarZ, however, V0.1 had a screw placement issue that restricted it to Kailh BOX-style switches. V0.2 is trouble-free, and prototypes have already been tested.
Features
* Wireless focus - battery footprint, power switches and no LEDs in sight
* Uses Jorne firmware - so QMK and ZMK support
* MX or Alps soldered or MX hotswap support in a single reversible PCB
* 6 column version also available for 100x150 PCB promos.
