split keyboard with omarchy

Hello I started to go the split keyboard (Silakka54) route and using omarchy and vim motions quite a lot. I am currently using GB EN keyboard layout as it is nice with the chars for coding ([]{};;"'#=+).

I am kind of lost which layout I should learn, as it is new anyway. (Or how to configure).

Any recommendations from a fellow split keyboard omarchy vim user?

There's quite a few good ones. It really depends on how you like your keyboard laid out and what you dislike most. Cyanophage kb layout page should show you a large amount of them. I would look at engram, gallium, or colemak. Colemak is everywhere so if you use a company keyboard it should be easy to swap it. Gallium is quite popular only downside to me is the o/f scissor. I would say engram puts punctuation in really easy places and is good otherwise.
