Halp! I started researching mechanical keyboards! 😄
Well. First thing I learned about mechanical keyboards: I do not want a mechanical+clicky. I'm undecided between mechanical+{linear,tactile} or magnetic... 🤔
Progress on the search for a mechanical keyboard: I now know I want 75%, because I need the arrow keys, but not the numpad.
The problem is that now I found out about the Alice layout, so that's a new thing to think about. 🙄
Carol Chen@badnetmask oh the mechanical keyboard rabbit hole 😆 Maybe "Alice" would be quite appropriate for the rabbit hole 🐰

/dev/loop0@badnetmask I have a Lofree FLOW Lite, and it is the best mechanical keyboard I've used in decades, I love the key switches on this keyboard, being wireless also helps keeping the desk clean.

I definitely need wireless, but a dongle is required, due to KVM. It's not easy to switch with BT.

@badnetmask it comes with a dongle, that's how I use it, I hate BT keyboards lol
Fishd@badnetmask I know the keyboard I want, but it seems they don't actually make it anymore.
I've got an ANSI layout Nuphy Air 60 with brown switches, and it's pretty good... not too loud, 60% size, low profile, hotswap Cherry-style switches in case I fancy a change, does multiple BlueTooth connections, has a 2.4Ghz dongle and even does USB-C wired connection!
However switching between the ANSI layout on that and ISO layouts on all my other devices is bending my brain (there is an extra key on an ISO layout, so I'm missing some punctuation that's normally easily accessible) so I want an ISO version.
Whilst they do list a UK ISO layout on some parts of their website, it's never in stock and I've never seen one on Youtube or anything. Shame as it's a reasonably dope keyboard and sensibly priced.

Well, at least that is nonnegotiable for me: I want ANSI. 😄
