... and Linux โ€“ all you need is a Chromium-based browser.

That's already alot better then most manufacturers can say.

Unfortunately it looks like the web version is lacking features that the windows-only app has, which is a disappointment.

Webapps are quite common now

[โ€“] PrinzKasper@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah any QMK based keyboard can be fully configured with web/electron apps like VIA.

[โ€“] nihilomaster@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Where does it say that and in what context? I can't seem to find it.

[โ€“] Kekzkrieger@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago

Linux support?

[โ€“] judgyweevil@feddit.it 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Germany is one of the few European regions to have a decent presence in the mechanical keyboard market

Wooting (Dutch) ist overlooked?

[โ€“] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Looks good spec wise

Only nitpicks I can see is the logo on top and the missing leds under the spacebar

[โ€“] GreatAlbatross@feddit.uk 5 points 1 month ago

I like the fact you can move the number pad to the left hand side (left-pad lol).

I've always fancied a left hand numpad, but never quite enough to buy a separate one for a TKL, or a special board.

Keyboard looks cool would buy it if it wasnโ€™t mechanical

[โ€“] Mihies@programming.dev 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ever tried a mechanical one? I would never go back.

[โ€“] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I did and I switched back to the mx keys. The advntages doesn't justify the price increase for me and I prefer the aestethics of a smaller, sleeker keyboard on my desk.

But that's the beauty of a free market. We don't need "one size fits all" products, we all can have our preferred keyboards, whether that be a top-end mechanical keyboard or a low-profile traditional one :))

[โ€“] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sure, I'm not judging, you know what's best for you. Just a bit surprised, that's all.

[โ€“] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Idk, I guess I'm just not as sensitive as you guys _/(0.0)\_

But I do need my vertical mouse. That is where I feel a massive difference.

[โ€“] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What is a vertical mouse? Classic one?

[โ€“] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

this is mine:

[โ€“] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

Nice, thanks.

[โ€“] Eheran@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How... Wait.... You like rubber domes more? Why?

[โ€“] Igilq@szmer.info 1 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Because they are silent and don't annoy me with clicking sound

[โ€“] Mac@mander.xyz 14 points 1 month ago

There are mech kbs that are silent and not clicky, btw

[โ€“] cptdi5a5ter@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

The whole point of the bequiet keyboards and mice is to be quiet. You should try them!

[โ€“] RidderSport@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

I've watched a review on these and frankly speaking, these are as silent as non-mechanical ones

[โ€“] Don_alForno@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

Then pick non-clicky switches, like cherry reds or browns.
