I use a flat keyboard too (Apple’s Magic Keyboard 2) because I remember that when I had a mechanical keyboard my wrists felt the strain because they are just so high. However I love the feel of mechanical keyboards and so am considering modifying my desk to accommodate one - so it’s height would more or less become the same as a flat keyboard. I’ve thought about using wrist rest, but that would then effectively double the space required and I usually have my note book directly beneath my keyboard!
If what you like about scissors is the low profile and short travel, there are an increasing number of vendors offering caps for Kailh Choc low-profile switches.
Just a thought, you might also want to consider getting a slim mechanical keyboard. For obvious reasons it will never be as slim as your current Apple keyboard but I’ve made good experiences with the Keychron K1 (I’m using it in the office).
Handmade from the old shelf I have found in the basement. I have cut it to the requested size, sanded to have little slope, and then preserve it with hot oil.
It is called artisans, which are handmade keycaps. No, these aren’t rotor encoders, rotor encoder can be seen on my Planck in the bottom left corner.
I use a WASD 104-key mechanical V2 with Cherry MX Brown switches, and a Glorious wrist rest. I love the DIP switches underneath that let you “switch” things up.
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.
I’m using the Ducky One 2 Mini with Cherry MX Browns. Not the most flashy, but a good workhorse of a keyboard for the price. And available in scandi-layout. Contemplated on US layout (more useful when programming), but I need to write fair amounts of other text too, so scandi it was.
