-- Nobody, ever.
I've only every bought one Cherry keyboard. 15 years ago, used daily still. I think that's their main failing as a business. They're too good.
I just hope their new owners don't try to fix this.
- alexeiz 10y agoThe demand for mechanical keyboards and switches is as high as ever. Countless Cherry MX clones are flooding the market. Cherry just can't keep up with the quality and the lower cost of clones. They could only be profitable while holding the patent for their switches. When the patent expired it was the beginning of the end for them.
