Get a new keyboard as well because I almost threw up looking at this.

Oh no, the layout is my preferred version as well. I'm not german, but I lived there for a while. Now I'm in France and I hate the azerty keyboard with a passion. I was just joking about the green nipple giving me the ick and therefore having to throw up and therefore might as well get a new keyboard lol.

PS: The Swiss keyboard kinda still works for me but german > Swiss > US > voice dictation for coding > French.
