Thilo, EE 🤘🏼🇪🇺⚛🎗️<p>Yeah, I'm still around. 😁<br>Finally, I managed to pick up all the parts for the keyboard:<br>A Skiller SGK50 S3 barebone, 4 boxes of Cherry MX Ergo Clear switches, and the keys I showed before. I decided to use the SNES key for the special key on the right.</p><p>I really like the result! 🥰</p><p><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/MechanicalKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MechanicalKeyboard</span></a></p>

The Peter Pan of Nerdery™ 🇦🇺🏜️<p>Credit where credit's due - I say again, the keyboard and trackpad on the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MacbookPro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MacbookPro</span></a> (mine anyway - M1 Pro) are really, really good. I don't think I've ever enjoyed typing on a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/laptop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>laptop</span></a> keyboard or using a trackpad before but this is certainly a great experience for a die hard <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mechanicalkeyboard</span></a> and mouse user.</p><p>The kid reached 108wpm using monkeytype - damn. He's insane on laptop keebs. I'll have to see how I test later.</p>

Peter Cock<p>My <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MechanicalKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MechanicalKeyboard</span></a> PCB and case etc have arrived. Will hopefully be able to start soldering &amp; assembly this week (got a couple of conference talks to wrap up first). JLCPLC seem to have done a grand job… although most of the 3D printed keycaps will need sprues removed &amp; sanded down <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ErgonomicKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ErgonomicKeyboard</span></a></p>
susan<p>happy nonbinary day from (the corner of) my keyboard 💛💜🖤</p><p><a href="https://xoxo.zone/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mechanicalkeyboard</span></a></p>
honze<p>Ich will mehr Ergonomie beim Schreiben. Also eine 100% Tastatur mit allen Tasten, links und rechts. Kein Fn Kram, keine Kotpilot Taste, keine halben Tasten, etc. Ich will mechanische Tasten, keine wie am Laptop. Aber ich will den geringen Hub, brauche keine Registrierkasse.</p><p>Muss ich das komplett selbst löten oder kann man das für einen normalen Preis kaufen?</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mechanicalkeyboard</span></a></p>
