The STRANGEST keyboard I have TRIED

The STRANGEST keyboard I have TRIED

I have been in the keyboard world for a short time (a couple of months) and I have been able to try keyboards with ANSI, ISO-ES, 75%, 60%, 65%, 96%, 100% layouts, etc., but I had never heard of ortholinear keyboards. I decided to try it and it has definitely been quite a challenge that I still haven't managed to overcome 😅

Were you familiar with ortholinear keyboards... have you tried them?

For 15 years I used this Apple membrane keyboard (Scissor)

For 15 years I used this Apple membrane keyboard (Scissor), and as you can see in this photo, it's like new... but I got bored and wanted to try other types of keyboards. There are definitely many options (mechanical, HE, optical, and capacitive).

If you were in my situation... which one would you try first and why?

my first silent keyboard. bought this from taobao and waited like 12 days for it to arrive lol but honestly… worth the wait. it feels sooo smooth and the sound is actually really satisfying for a silent keyboard.

i kept seeing a bunch of korean reviews about this keyboard and everyone seemed to love it, so of course i had to try it myself so far so good!! the typing feel is really nice, smooth and soft, and i’m actually enjoying typing on it way more than i expected🤍

Keyboard for at the office

Hi guys! I am looking for a keyboard I can take to the office. Hopefully asking buying advice is fine here. Some additional information:

- I own a ducky 65 I use at home. Happy with it, although I use a separate rubber wrist rest I bought from wooding. It is broader than the keyboard itself which might look messy at the office.

- I don't want a wrist rest at the office that does not fit with the keyboard, it should fit with the keyboard.

- I would like they keyboard to be fairly quiet

- I like the smaller form factor for ergonomic reasons, but I would not be opposed to something a bit larger. Sometimes I miss some keys. I am not looking for a numpad or anything like that.

- The keyboard will be stored in a locker every day, so it will be moved around. Has to be somewhat sturdy (but I am generally carefully with my electronics)

- for budget I don't have a strict budget, but I want bang for buck. Let's say the 80/20 rule. If getting there means I have to spend 200 euro I am open for that.

- it has to be wired for compliance reasons

- it will only be used for typing, I would not like to install custom software on it, I will not need any programmable keys or RGB.

If I need to provide any more information please let me know.

Thanks for reading!

Recommendations for a new keyboars

I'm looking for a new mechanical keyboard and have a budget of around 80 dollars. The only issue is i can only buy from amazon.de because of the country that i live in. Does anybody know any keyboards that they would recommend?

Also, from what I have seen Yunzii B75 PRO MAX and Aula f75/f75 pro are decent options. Does anyone have experience with any of those two?
