Which keyboard do you have?

If it’s a mechanical keyboard, which switches do you have?

Would you recommend it? Why?

What will your next keyboard be?

Pics always welcome :nerd_face:

At home, I use a Minidox (DSA PBT blanks, Zealios, Sprit 62S, Tribosys 3204):

On the go, I carry a Planck (Godspeed MT3, Zealios, Catweewee 55, Tribosys 3204):

Overall, I prefer the Minidox, but the caps and springs on the Planck are better, so at some point I’d like to build another Minidox with that setup.

My layout is a Colemak mod with layers (home row mods, home row arrows, home row numbers, etc.). It can be viewed on QMK master. I use the same layout on both boards (the Planck is set up in a wide mod to match the Minidox—center columns and extra corner keys are unused).

You can read more of my writing about alt layouts in this gist.

I’m using a Varmilo VA69M with brown switches. I’ve been incredible happy with it since I got it, metal casing and great build quality. I enjoy having it on one of those giant mouse pads to soften sound a bit.

Hi folks, today I receive my Anne Pro II mechanical keyboard 60% with MX Cherry Silver Linear Switches, it’s so soft and smooth when I use to write I liked it a lot and very silent too.

and the software for this keyboard has options for mac, windows, and linux too, in hist software, I can create new layouts, and not only that I could update the firmware too.

Where Next?
