It's surprising to me, as it feels like a development from the last 5 years where the hobbyist community has totally eclipsed the prosumer community.
I had to replace a failed keyboard last year and went looking for advice - when I last did it it was basically a question of "do you want clicky or not switches? Das is a pretty reliable brand but Razer has some stuff with RGB if you like that"
Now it's all "Oh don't buy an off-the-shelf one, wait for this dude's next massdrop order or buy a kit and put it together yourself"
And I just don't have time for that. This is one area where I'm pretty happy just looking for a recommendation for something I can just buy and use.
- mckirk 4y agoI'd just get a Keychron in whatever format you prefer, maybe together with a set of keycaps you like. Still fairly cheap compared to going full custom, but definitely respectable performance. I'd always go for hot-swappable switches though, since my last keyboard (a Ducky) developed key chattering issues after a while, and I'd want to fix that if it happened again.
