Arg...now I'm debating whether I should get the Ergodox EZ because it's closer to what I already know and the keyboardio is having some manufacturing problems.

I went back to an MX Clear keyboard briefly the other day — a G80-3000LQCDE that's seen several yeas of daily use in the workplace. To me, the switches feel soft and smooth. Even the seldom-used keys felt surprisingly light and easy to press (this is coming from MX Red). Being PCB mount, they were ...

Given the situation, I would recommend deciding on a keyboard first and look into having someone else replace the switches if they aren't to your liking.

Did you ever try Cherry Clears? IIRC Kinesis did sell the PCBs and "frames" to mod an Advantage without damaging its original switches.

Newbie asking about Matias Quiet Clicks vs Matias Clicks.

Hey everyone!

This hobby looks as all-consuming as my headphone hobby, but here I am. A little background:

I had a motorcycle accident and have a plate and screw in my right (dominant) wrist. I have reduced flexibility due to the injury. I've been using a Kinesis Advantage Dvorak for more than a ...
