Man. I have been wanting one of these #Nuphy Air75’s (actually have wanted a Field75 more) for ages now, ever once they started spamming my FB feed with their damned pretty keebs.

New click-clack: Keychron K5 100% brown switches 😍 Keycaps have a rubber finish which I didn't fully like at first but it's growing on me now.

The overall experience is vastly different from the portable¹ Keychron K2 TKL I use with my laptop. The K5 requires a lot less force to type which is good for my aging fingers :)

¹) "portable": well, it's quite thick and heavy but also sturdy because of it

#MechanicalKeyboard

She's there!
My brand new #MechanicalKeyboard, a Piantor Pro BT by #Keebart
Nice quality, super light and small compared with my (kid's) #ErgoDash
Since I promised the ErgoDash to my kid, a dad has the right for a new keeb, hasn't he? 😇

(Bad quality pic, indeed: tomorrow I'll post a proper one)

[EDIT: typos...]

I'm still looking at my first personal #mechanicalKeyboard options.
What are your opinions?

I got the itch to build another keyboard recently, and wanted to try my hand at a dactyl-style.

These flexible "pumpkin" PCBs are an incredible time saver!

CHERRY XTRFY K63W Pro might be the coolest gaming keyboard announced at Computex 2026

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://nerds.xyz/2026/06/cherry-xtrfy-k63w-pro-gaming-keyboard/

A cleaner setup, built with intention. 🧩

The UHK 60 is about stripping things back to the minimal — removing what’s unnecessary, then using modularity only to add what’s truly needed.

Focus grows where distraction fades. ⌨️

Ever looked at your keyboard and thought: “What if this little cluster could do more?”

UHK key cluster = your mini command center: launch apps, control media, switch layers, run macros.

Not extra keys — extra power.

Your keyboard can do way more than you think! 😏

Layers, macros, and programmable keys turn the UHK 60 & 80 into your personal productivity wizard. Spell out shortcuts, automate tasks, and master your workflow like a pro.

Think your keyboard can’t do more? Think again! 😏

RE: https://mastodon.social/@keyboards/116244165862660996

It's been a while since I've seen a #keyboard with some fun and color like this. It's refreshing! 💜💛

#MechanicalKeyboards friends, I need your help!

_Question_: what do you think about the Bokeh Ambients Silent switches?

I am thinking of buying the Piantor Pro BT from https://www.keebart.com/products/piantor-wireless

_Background_:
1. I had an IBM Model M #keeb for 20+ years
2. I moved to a Filco Majestouch 2 TKL with #Cherry MX Blues
3. I also had a GMMK 1 #MechanicalKeyboard with #Gateron Blues
4. Then I moved to an ErgoDash with #Kailh Whites Box (current daily driver).

When using Blender I’d like to keep my right hand on the pointing device (pen or mouse) and the other on the keyboard.

But I use a steeply tented split keyboard, and a few keys I need regularly are on the right half; with a flat keyboard I’d reach over to the other half, but because of the almost 90° tenting this is difficult and slow.

I think I will try solving this issue by making one key flip the two halves (temporarily).

What do you think, how would you approach this problem?

@melissawm The #Svalboard has magnetic keys, really light touch apparently & owners seem to think it is awesome - but rather pricy even in kit form: https://svalboard.com/

Or are you thinking the more mainstream but still niche #HallEffect #MechanicalKeyboard designs? I'd like to try those too...

I am slowly getting better at soldering, 4 out of 7 successful #MechanicalKeyboard PCBs now - all three of my diode-free #GraphTheory wired keyboard PCB designs have worked (eventually) ⌨️🎊

1️⃣ #RaspberryPiPico #RP2040 ‘Gamma Omega TC36K’ (USB only) http://astrobeano.blogspot.com/2025/08/my-first-self-built-computer-keyboard.html

2️⃣ #ProMicro #nRF52840 BLE ‘Gamma Omega Hesse’ https://astrobeano.blogspot.com/2025/10/hesse-diode-free-bluetooth-keyboard.html

3️⃣ #SeeedStudio #Xiao #SplitKeyboard BLE split Forager ‘Acid’ http://astrobeano.blogspot.com/2025/10/partial-heawood-forager-keyboard.html

#ErgoMechKeyboard #ErgonomicKeyboard

My current success rate with #MechanicalKeyboard PCB soldering is currently only 2 out of 5, well 40% is a pass mark - just.

The #RaspberryPiPico #RP2040 ‘Gamma Omega TC36K’ board worked (an easy build, could probably have socketed it). 💚

One success, one failure with #SeeedStudio #Xiao BLE castellated in Forager ‘Acid’ PCB (some fiddly back pads). 🧡

Two failures with #ProMicro #nRF52840 BLE in ‘Gamma Omega Hesse’ board attempting faux-castellation💔

Just as well custom PCBs are fabricated in batches of five - waiting on spare parts to try again - #LearningByDoing or #LearningByFailing ?

If my first wireless Bluetooth #MechanicalKeyboard proves a little battery hungry - and the #ZMK Discord channel suggests the #nRF52840 #ProMicro controller I plan on using can be - there’s an easy fix: Buy a bigger battery! 🪫

In hindsight I was over cautious when I ordered the 300mAh LP602030 battery BEFORE finalising the design, and eked out a few more millimetres for it 😢

Design is here: https://github.com/unspecworks/gamma-omega/tree/main/hesse

Salut la team #clavier 😊

J'aimerai bien essayer un petit clavier ergonomique / mécanique / séparé comme le #soflekeyboard

Mais avant d'en acheter un je voudrais trouver un moyen d'en tester un quelques semaines.

Est ce que quelqu'un pourrait m'en prêter un ? Où louer ?
Où est ce que vous avez d'autre idées pour tester ?

Woof! That was a hell of a session! Just need to trim off a little bit of rod in the middle columns and then I can start soldering up the microcontroller. Unfortunately it’s a little too late to turn on the Dremel! Absolutely in love with using copper rods instead of wire though, it’s sooo pretty!

Spent an hour desoldering switches from an old #keyboard so I could run my new custom #3dprinted #orthonlinear at the same time as my old board just in case this didn’t work out for me. I’m still not sure if I want to keep the full F-key row. Just waiting for some copper rods to arrive and I can get to soldering!

Well, now that my lily58 ergo mech board is down I'm falling back to my spare. It's an Epomaker TH 66 and its fine for a standard board.

I got to say though going from column staggered back to row staggered is not a happy place for me.

This is the oddest #KeyboardLayout I've seen in quite a while: https://www.cnx-software.com/2025/01/20/bandit-pc32-standalone-colorforth-keyboard-computer-is-powered-by-the-raspberry-pi-rp2350-microcontroller/

And yes, the #OrtholinearKeyboard of that small #handheld computer seems to be a #MechanicalKeyboard, they say it has #Kailh Brown switches, seemingly MX compatible.

Moving around the O and especially the P and L key reminds me of the #keyboard layout of the #Enigma, also because I also already was experimenting with such layouts: https://github.com/xtaran/XTK/blob/master/Painigma27.md

I'm crushed. The left half of my lily58 ergo mech keyboard started flaking out yesterday. Once plugged in it types 5tgb and then those keys go dead. I'm thinking a short.

It's a boardsource.xyz buy, not quite a year old. I'm going to reach out but any troubleshooting would be appreciated.
