I am looking for a low profile keyboard compatible with the choc switches. I plan to put the choc sunset on it. I was looking for something similar to the Corne, just without the ergo-split thing. A standard 65-75% would work.
Bonus for hot swappable and no soldering required.
Do anyone have feedback on this?

Looks promising
How much like the corne do you want it to be?
Like, one piece but with a small separation in the left/right sides?

Like a normal keyboard but split?

Some other thing entirely?
Also, how DIY do you want to get?

As long as no soldering is required I am up for everything
I know you’re interested in using Kailh choc sunsets but if it’s really just the low profile factor and not the ergo-split part you’re interested in, have you considered any of the low profile options from Keychron? They make both a 65% and 75% low profile board: Keychron K7 Pro (65%)
I’ve heard that their banana and mint low profile switches are quite nice and very tactile.
Unfortunately, there aren’t many options in the 60%+ range.
Cepstrum (sp?) From keebio is the most recent one I know of, but it’s a split. There’s the Chocolate Bar, mt-choc and Pete (of ZMK fame) is working on WarDriver - a choc minivan - but it hasn’t been released yet.

When you say without the ergo split thing, are you looking for something that’s “row staggered” like Keeb.io’s new Cepstrum? https://keeb.io/collections/cepstrum/products/cepstrum-keyboard-pre-built It’s a more traditional 65% build, but still split.
Or are you just looking for something Corne-like and ergo, but as a unibody build? The Reviung41 LP rings some bells. https://mkultra.click/reviung41-lp-low-profile-keyboard-kit/
