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. Now might be the time. Don’t have any in my collection yet, and hey, Epipennic Anaphylacticity told me I should get more, so.. #mechanicalkeyboards #mechanicalkeyboard #mechkeys https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CMYYKJFN

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

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? -
Trackball, Trackpoint, Touchpad, Key Cluster... what's next? ⌨️
If you could design a brand-new UHK module, what would it do?
No boundaries here—let your imagination run wild! 👇

Kritikpunkte angegangen: Neue Firmware verbessert die PureWriter W100 https://www.computerbase.de/news/tastaturen/kritikpunkte-angegangen-neue-firmware-verbessert-die-purewriter-w100.99211/ #sharkoon #mechanicalkeyboard #rgb

Split vs non-split keyboards: once you notice the difference, you can’t un-notice it.
Split feels like your hands finally stopped crowding each other. Non-split feels like muscle memory never got interrupted.Both have their charm — and their stubborn fans.
We basically thought: why choose? Switch between layouts depending on how serious your typing day is. 💡

Still doing these tasks manually?
Here are 3 things your keyboard could be doing for you:
⚡ Typing the same phrases over and over
⚡ Opening the apps you use every day
⚡ Managing media controls and shortcutsA good macro turns repetitive actions into a single keypress.
What's one task you'd love to automate?

I'd been thinking it would be nice to have a decent fidget, and I found this little mechanical keyboard strip that should be very nice.
It came with Kailh Arctic Fox clicky switches (which I wanted to try), but I'm also giving it a go with U4Ts — it's easy to switch them out.
The keycaps are also extras from the set I'm using for my main keyboard, which had pink/green options for ESC and a few others.

My current temporary desktop setup: #HappyHackingKeyboard Professional 2 (electrostatic capacitive #Topre switches) with #Domikey #Orange #Dolch #doubleshot #keycaps
Edit: Just noticed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Hacking_Keyboard that the #HHKB Pro 2 is now 20 years old — released in March 2006 — and the HHKB in general nearly 30 years, released in December 1996.

#MechanicalKeyboards friends, I need your help!
#askFedi_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). -
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

New #MechanicalKeyboard day! It's a #Kiser Monorail 45% #keyboard which I recently bought from @opendev on #40sDay in the Fediverse. I've put #HolyBoba switches in the #Kailh #hotswap sockets and put MiTo's GMK Laser keycap set plus some novelties on.
And yes, the #KiserMonorail is #V4N4G0N compatible, so it's my fifth keyboard with #TheVanKeyboards #Minivan-style layout.
It runs #QMK on an #RP2040 and uses easy peasy #Vial for configuration!

@dhry: Here are my two #mechanicalkeyboard #dailydrivers at home (#RamaWorks #U80-A Seq. 2 #TKL in Stealth Black with #MT3 #Skiidata #keycaps and #Kailh Box Jade switches + wired Mod-IT/Pearl #trackball with the glittery grey ball of an unfortunately wireless-only Logitech MX Ergo trackball, #AfterShokz #boneconduction headset and volume knob of a #Logitech Z533 speaker set) and at work (#Tex #Yoda II with #GMK Yoda 2 keycaps and #Cherry #MX Brown switches with #QMX Silencer Clips).

Happy #MechanicalKeyboard #40sDay!
My favourite ≤ 40% keyboards:1) custom #WorldspawnsKeebs #Shambles (world's smallest #TKL 😉) in fluorescent acrylic with #Nephlock #GMK #Kaiju (bought from Drop)
2) #Ziptyze #Zlant (bought from #1UpKeyboards) with SA #Vilebloom
3) #TheVanKeyboards (#TVK) #MiniVan with GMK #Paperwork — IMHO the most usable 40%
4) #PyrooL #Alpha28 (sub-30% bought from WorldspawnsKeebs on Etsy) with GMK Pulse #Mitolet (from Drop)
Thanks to @petejohanson for the idea!

#Kailh Box Jades sound awesome but are sadly too heavy for me. I switched them out for Box Whites in my Kimiko. #Mechanicalkeyboard #Mechanicalkeyboards
-
Swapped in the #Kailh box navy keyswitches into my keychron Q3 and they're fantastic. Quieter, at least with the gasketed steel plate, than a Cherry MX Green but stiffer with a slightly shorter and sharper engagement. I only have a half-day typing on them but they may be my new favorite switch.
-
Btw, is there anyone around who tried the new kailh sunset switches? My wife is threatening a divorce over the clicky white ones, so I'm looking for low pro tactile switches
-
Ordered a new #mechanicalkeyboard - this time with #kailh brown switches and a 60% layout (not even Fn keys) because I won't to be able to travel with this one.
