Whenever I see someone giving away an older looking keyboard - Lemmy.ca

My local buynothing page has a lot of keyboards. There was a mechanical one the other day, but I didn’t win the draw

I am so happy with the advances in keyboard technology. i have really heavy fingers when i type. Not physically, but I’ve always used a bunch of force despite my best efforts.

And love mechanical keys, so that makes everything super duper loud.

Thankfully there are entire youtube channels devoted to keyboards and I was able to find a board that can be mechanical and wonderful but not sound like the end of days whenever try and send an email or type out anything too long. ___

sounds like you’d do well with a typewriter
I absolutely love typewriters. You are very correct. If they were more practical, I’d take up smoking again and go work for the times.
