I’ve been keeping an eye out for cool new keyboards lately. Recently, a friend introduced me to a mechanical keyboardl, and I have to say, I was impressed. The build quality and typing feel were top-notch, which got me thinking about upgrading my setup. It reminded me of when I first got into mechanical keyboards—such a game-changer compared to my old membrane one. Have you come across any other interesting keyboards recently?

This could be interesting?

A new Apple patent filed this week has revealed the company is studying a new MacBook keyboard that could provide adjustable feedback to users, letting them vary the tactile force and the audible feedback of each key depending on how hard you press it, customization, and other factors.

Well, it’s 2025 now. Been lurking for a while but foxtrottwist got me interested in dactyl manuforms and I finally got one of these and it’s been super solid.

Nice one @dara, welcome to devtalk :023:

How are you finding it? Do you need a wrist rest with it? It seems a little high but that could just be the photo - do you have any photos of it next to a standard key or mouse perhaps?

How can you use that keyboard without labels in them? :smiley:

People do this on purpose - as it forces you to remember where the keys are :smiley:

I don’t use a wrist rest. It looks high but when I use them I tilt my wrist. If you look at the edges it’s not particularly high, it’s about 1.5cm above the table or so.

Ah yep it’s what @AstonJ says, I just memorize it and it’s part of learning touch typing.

Very nice, how long you been going with it? I have been pretty tempted by one of the Cyboard Imprints for a while, not pulled the trigger on one yet though.

:joy: I nearly did but I for now I ended up going off the deep end and decided to try Svalboard, so currently trying to learn that thing. Still lusting after the Imprint all the same but I still have some issues using a Glove80 most of the time and thought perhaps a more radical change was necessary. There are only so many insanely expensive keyboards I can really buy at a time.
