Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

I was excited about the keyboard and making some mods to it, but I was disappointed .
First, let us talk about the pros :
- On the aesthetic side, it is a beautiful keyboard with RGB lighting, acrylic layers and brass plate.
- Stabilizers are good
This is for the pros. Let's talk about the cons, which are many :- The feet of the keyboard are unstable and wobble if you press (home - esc) .
- There are gaps between the acrylic layers .
- There is heat coming from the bottom of the keyboard .
- useless software .
- The (FN) key does not work like other keyboards, and you cannot customize layers from the software, which makes dealing with the keyboard difficult .
By the end,I wouldn't have paid a single dollar for this keyboard If aware of these Issues, however you get what you pay for .- The wobbly feel can be counteracted with the two rubber feet they provide by putting them on the inclined feet. If you somehow don't have the said rubber feet, you can just take out the big metal DNA logo altogether, since it's the main reason why the board wobbles.
- The gaps can be band-aid modded to add friction and seals up the layers. I haven't done so yet but someone on Reddit said it worked for them, so it's worth a shot.
The rest is just your preference, so not much to address there since that's what you get for a cheap board.
