I had actually had one of these M5Stack I2C keyboards onhand and tried interfacing the I2C pogo pins and all worked out great. Would be pretty simple to make the device driver as well - just havn't gotten around to it yet / want the case built out beforehand.

The keyboard itself is pretty much the perfect size to fit vertically on the pinephone (which I would prefer in anycase). I was thinking maybe doing something like a swivel / 180 degree mechanism so part of the screen is covered when using the keyboard and then rotate it back when not in use. Really using this thing would be more a matter of case design / 3D printing. Unfortunately, have lost my access to a 3D printer.

Also another potential is: https://www.tindie.com/products/arturo18...oard-pmod/ though these are a lot less readily available.
When you get the chance ill love to get my paws on the code.
owo notices your distro.
