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.

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! 👇

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!

Decided I need to implement keyboard layers on the laptop keyboard for times I don't have my #mechanicalkeyboard with me (or that I'm lazy to deploy it).
Bsearchin around I encountered this:

Anyone has experience with it? Anyone has other recommendations (on linux).

Built for coders, by coders. ⚡

Your setup is dialed in—so why type on a flat plastic slab?

The Ultimate Hacking Keyboard offers:
• Split ergonomics for zero wrist strain
• Modules to stay on the home row
• Custom layers & macros
Upgrade your main tool! ⌨️🔥

After a few weeks with this tiny 36-key mechanical keyboard I think I might go back to the full sized Mac keyboard 🙈

#MechanicalKeyboard

First working full assembly of my #RugbyUnion 15-a-side diode-free monobody tented #ErgoMechKeyboard, with a reversible PCB joined by 16 short wires (much fiddlier than I expected), in a case printed in Tinmorry Galaxy Green PLA, fitted with black resin Chicago Stenographer keycaps (printed by #JLCPLC who did my PCB too), and 1.5u MBK in the corners and on the thumbs (later should be 1.75u but I only have one of those to hand). Running #ZMK firmware (with #QMK and #RMK testing pending).

Design files for this #MechanicalKeyboard are here https://codeberg.org/peterjc/pico-keyboards/src/branch/main/rugbyunion with build guide and improved case design pending.

Your keyboard spends a lot of time with you.

Might as well make it a good one.

The UHK80 brings a modular design, serious customization, and the kind of typing experience that makes every other keyboard feel a little… ordinary.

Your desk called. It wants an upgrade. ✨

> Buys Gateron switch tester

"Damn, I like this 'Low Profile 2.0 Magnetic Jade Pro' switch"

> Looks up the switch
> Not even Gateron sells them except for in the tester
> Sells some that aren't even part of their sample tester though

Mechanical keyboards aren't fun, the market is a fucking disaster. :< Stuff is advertised that doesn't apparently exist, switches are sold for which there are no barebones to be found anywhere, sellers only know brown & red… it just sucks.

Someone recently advised me to buy another MK. This could well be it.

@petejohanson @papawilf Sadly dozens of us on Mastodon may be accurate - see also #MechanicalKeyboard firmware hashtags like #QMK, #ZMK, etc. There is lots on Discord (behind closed doors), or Reddit…

My new Numphy Node75 has arrived, and it feels even better than the Lofree Flow Lite 84, that I have used in the last few months. Picking the red switches was a good idea, even though they are a bit louder than the switches in the Lofree. #mechanicalkeyboard

New on WeirdLittleKeebs.com, a Crisco 20% keyboard with a new deluxe 3D-printed case that even has folding legs for added tilt! #mechanicalkeyboard

https://www.etsy.com/listing/4558362513/pre-built-deluxe-crisco-20-keyboard

So I was at a Mediamarkt today to look at mechanical keyboards.

Con: people apparently love to steal keycaps
Pro: I could perfectly see the switches
Very Con: They only had Red (about 50-60% of all of them), a few browns… and a single blue. And some keyboards that faked being mechanical.

Bleh.

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 shortcuts

A good macro turns repetitive actions into a single keypress.

What's one task you'd love to automate?

#UHK #KeyboardMacros #Productivity #MechanicalKeyboard #WorkSmarter

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.

Wow Keychron sharing all the industrial design files for 83 of their products is very cool. They're releasing it as a source-available non-commercial license but explicitly encourages non-commercial community modding and accessory development. This is also very encouraging from a right to repair perspective!

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! 😏

My new Grape iMac G3 Keycap, from @snazzyq, arrived today. Been looking for a fun keycap for my escape key for a while! I like how this looks and the colour is almost a perfect match for my existing keycap colour way.

Comfort over long hours starts with the right setup. ⏳

Using the UHK Riser, high degree tenting allows your hands and forearms to rest in a more natural, neutral position. By reducing forearm rotation and minimizing wrist deviation, it helps ease physical stress, supports healthier posture, and lowers fatigue during extended typing sessions.

Stay comfortable, stay focused, and keep going longer. 🎯

@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 ?

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!
