Not me, I just bought a kit. I believe the vendor did and have the repo public on GitHub, but I have trouble finding it half the time.

Fair enough, I live in Germany which is exceedingly convenient for the hobby. Around when I decided to build my first keyboard, there was a convention a few hours away by train. Went there and tried out all these testers and keyboards that these super nice people were providing. Based on what I've always liked, I thought I wanted a 20-40g linear low profile switch, but turned out I loved Kaihl sunset, which was tactile and 55g or something.

So, yeah, if you're not sure, best to try to get some testers. Good luck!

Can you order some testers first, or maybe ask around in a local keyboard group if someone can let you try their keys? I find it to be the easiest way to figure out what's actually comfortable.

I've got a 42 key cantor at home, previous keyboard was Logitech K860. At work we get these standard full sized keyboards that come with the PCs we order. I've had no real issues switching, apart from the first two days of getting used to the layout. Sometimes I'll hit the XCVB keys wrong, but that doesn't bother me too much.

I have never been good at platforming, almost gave up on getting into the main city. Luckily my partner has the skills and patience to do those pure difficult platforming challenges for me, so I managed to complete the game. Same thing with Blasphemous actually. Gorgeous game, platforming way too difficult for me.

Even he couldn't do white palace, and I doubt I'm good enough to beat the true final boss, so I never got the good ending.

My boyfriend watched it and told me not to bother.

  • Humour, like comics and memes.
  • Literature, I'm sure there are communities around genres, authors, book series....

Korean pork BBQ This is a pretty spicy dish that's not too hard to make. I usually end up substituting a couple ingredients but it always come out nicely.

Tuscan Chicken Not exactly spicy, but it's such a flavourful dish that I just have to recommend it. A huge amount of sun-dried tomatoes gives this dish a distinctive taste. I usually add whatever vegetables I feel like and it always come out great.

Thanks!

I've been using Logitech ERGO K860 at home before this, so maybe I've just gotten used to the wrist rests. I've noticed that I lift my wrists into the air when I type on the Cantor, so I thought I needed some support. It's actually not uncomfortable and I don't type a lot, so I'll take your advice and try a little longer with this setup. I'd honestly really like to avoid taking up the space on my desk, since I like to write on paper.

splitkb.com. They ship internationally from Netherlands, Europe. They have some really nice MBK PBT keycaps. I also ordered some cream yellow from them and those look great too.

 

Finished my first build, it turned out prettier than I expected honestly. I got a diodeless kit because I had never soldered anything before, it was quite a fun learning experience. Also my first mechanical keyboard, I'm really enjoying the feel of the keys (Kailh sunset).

I was really worried about adapting to the column-stagger, I've only used the regular row-stagger before, but after one hour of practice I was already typing at about half my normal speed, so I'm pretty happy.

I do feel that I need wrist rests though. not sure how to fix that yet.

I really liked the Black Magician trilogy. I'd love to read more books that have 'evil' magic as a major component of the plot, preferably with some kind of trope subversion.
