@kaeroseon5 күн бұрын
Keep an eye on keychron. They are rolling out HE variants of their Q series board which should have a southpaw variant. HE boards aren’t usually available in weird layouts at this point. And as someone who have only had a few interactions with HE boards that aren’t wooting, I’m still skeptical about the hype.
@wilazn5 күн бұрын
@@kaeroseon yea I seen their Q1 He and their K2 He so far. Didn't know they have south paw kbs. And for the HE hype, it's pretty much just the "rapid trigger" response that mechanicals can't do and also the nullbind that just came out.
@kaeroseon5 күн бұрын
@wilazn the null bind is genuinely cool, but rapid triggers effectiveness still feels so overblown and overhyped to me so I'm still holding out until there's an option I like and software has gotten consistently good across the board.

I have an RK61 and I want it to sound like cracking knuckles (the poppy sound that's right in between clack and thock, but not overly smooth or "creamy"), what mods should I do? I'm okay with it being resonant and loud as long as it's not too high-pitched or pingy. I'm also open to different switches, though I've only had reds and blues on an entire keyboard as well as a random assorted 12-switch tester which made me decide that I don't like tactile switches (at least not browns) because they just feel like a worse linear. Click jackets are also pretty bad (I liked my red board so much that when I had to replace my old RK61 with blues and the Havit 89 with reds, I picked an RK61 with reds), but based on the tester I like click bar switches for their tactility, I just think they might be pretty distracting noise-wise. Luckily there ARE muted click bar switches (mute jades) so that could be a route I take, but right now I'm looking for mods under $20 and I already have a few kinds of foam and tape lying around.

I don’t think products like budget board GBs are about FOMO. It’s just the business model to get things made to meet the demand. There’s just not enough demand to in stock these keyboards. If there were, it’d cost more. I do imagine injection mold boards being instocked more often . Either way there’s still plenty of options to buy secondhand or extras of past GBs so you do not HAVE to enter a group buy to get something
