🚨 New Video: Cute & Thocky - Epomaker TH99 Pro Review

The Epomaker TH99 Pro looks incredible and sounds amazing right out of the box with its Creamy Jade switches. But what happens when you plug a "smart" keyboard into an Artix Linux machine and the kernel thinks it's a 20-year-old Vivitar webcam?

Today, we put this 98-key board through the Terminal Tilt hardware test to see if it actually respects your digital sovereignty. We score it on Modularity, Repairability, and Sovereignty, and jump into what it actually takes to bypass proprietary drivers to use the built-in screen.

100% human made. #NoAI
