Welcome to Keyboard Monday, everyone!
I'm typing this on my ZSA Moonlander and record the process on my microphone so that you can hear the popcorn sound my switches make.
It's quite the "holiday" experience to type with the Clickiez again :)

@dcseifert *nodds in agreement*
Once you went with good switches you don't want to go back...
If you like #BucklingSpring, you may also like #BoxNavy and #Clickiez switches...

I really should get some 49g #Clickiez for #BigChungus!

Let’s Talk About Clickiez
Let’s Talk About Clickiez Introduction So, there has been a lot of buzz about these switches in the keyboard community. So much buzz that I found myself pre-ordering them months before they were released. Now that I actually have them, and have had them in my daily driver keyboard for over a week it’s time to talk about them. Are they good? Are they bad? Do they live up to the hype? Before we start talking about these switches, I’d like to make a few things clear about what I can’t cover in this article. Especially because a couple of these topics are substantial topics that are relevant to these switches. Comparing Clickiez to ALPS switches. I have been racking my brain trying to recall any keyboards I have used that had ALPS switches. And, as far as I can recall, there aren’t any that left a lasting impression. And, as far as I can recall, there aren’t any. That isn’t to say that I haven’t encountered them. I’ve certainly used a lot of different PC’s and Mini-computer and Main frame terminals over the years. However, I think there are likely a couple of reasons why none of them had a lasting impression on me: either I didn’t use them long enough (a few months is likely not long enough to have an impression), or I didn’t use it enough to have an impression. In fact, one of the more likely places for me to have encountered an ALPS switch would have been in college when I was taking computer science classes. However, here’s the thing: I had a computer in my dorm room in college. (First an IBM PC Jr, which was replaced by an IBM PS/2 Model 30.) So, my typical work flow was to write my code in my dorm room using my PC, upload the code to the college mainframe and make certain it was working. Then, and only then, did I go to the college computer lab to do the final run of code and printout the results. So, that definitely didn’t constitute heavy usage. Converting to Tactile or Linear Switches One of the selling points of the Clickiez is that you are getting a 3-in-1 type of switch. By opening them and making a small adjustment to the click mechanism you can make them tactile, without the clicking noise, or you can remove the […]
