Mechanical Keyboards

...specifically to install spares I already have. Level with me, y'all. Do I have a problem?

Apparently they’ve pulled out of recent GBs they were set to be the US proxy for. They’ve set their discord to read only and deleted general chat. And their ticket system says it’s full and can’t accept new ones....

Just bought my first mechanical keyboard, an Epomaker RT100 with Flamingo switches. Is it normal to be accidentally pressing keys (mostly shift and spacebar) while just resting my fingers on the keyboard? Is it because I've only used membrane keyboards up until now, and I'll eventually get used to the new sensitivity? Or should...

I plan to buy my first split keyboard (forever) very soon and would like to hear y'all's opinions on the Glove80 (switch: Kailh Choc v1 Brown Tactile) and Moonlander (switch: Kailh Copper or Cherry MX Brown) two.

It features a 66 key IBM beamspring that was unfortunately suffering from the usual material degradation. The CRT was also non-functional with an apparent HV issue....

Looking into getting my first mechanical keyboard and want to dip my toes in the pool. Just wanted your guys perspective. I might swap the switches for some gaterons since they are hotswappable.

This is my Nixdorf 8850 keyboard which came out in the mid 1970s (although I think mine is a later 80s version). It dates from an era where computer design was still the wild west. There were no standard or correct ways to do anything so every manufacturer made it up as they went along. This keyboard is an excellent example of...

A refugee from reddit wanting to bring a question here. I'm looking to build a keyboard for work that would be ergonomic. Doesn't necessarily need to be split....
