Have you thought about adding a trackpoint? Because in my opinion what you currently have looks really good and I wish to make one someday, though if it had a trackpoint it would be the best 3dprinted keyboard by a long shot. btw https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSsm4h2ccJMdR6bsAFyIu6A might be worth looking into,

Good suggestion. There is room for adding a trackpoint right above the space/backspace key at the center so it's easily reachable by a thumb. I will look into this and check out the channel. Thanks!

There is nowhere to find a trackpoint module. The only way seems to be getting a Thinkpad keyboard with trackpoint.

I tried a cheap mini joystick module. It can work as a mouse in principle but the movement is like zigzag on the x-axis and y-axis, not smooth at all. Maybe a better module is all I need.

It may be possible to rip one from a thinkpad, that would be amazing to have a track point on there
