I do like custom mechanical keyboards and I am quite "neutral" about GMMK boards. 1. I read on the product's page they are compatible with QMK firmware, which makes possible to configure the keyboard from Linux (and I guess from OpenBSD). Probably the convenient configuration app it's Windows-only, but it seems we are not limited to it 2. That's weird and should not happen. It may be a defect with the keyboard / stabilizers or it may be a problem with the spacebar key (it's bent, twisted or it has been manufactured with the wrong geometry), but definitely it should be addressed 3. My experience is that a proper chair with arm rests and a table at the right height make a wrist rest unnecessary (and it can be counterproductive from a ergonomics perspective) 4. Nothing to comment about the dimming feature While nowadays you can find all kinds of prices and qualities regarding mechanical keyboards, $169.99 is really "cheap" for an entry level custom keyboard with these features. My impression is that the keyboard hobby is one of those things you don't fully get until you are into it, it's a dangerous rabbit hole :-)
