There are two pictures of the Hobbyist kit, and the R3 1.75 key legend is different between the two. Picture 09/13 shows "Caps Lock" while picture 13/13 shows "Control". Which one is correct?

ignoring the drama here. The base kit color way, compatibility and a set of Mac mods made this an automatic buy for me. Skipping all the meme accent keys etc.

IMHO something about this design just feels kinda rushed. I really really like the zoomer kit colors and overall look, but not a fan at all that the sublegends are so tacky. I assume $SIGP stands for signature plastics... isn't that kinda strange to print on the front of a GMK keycap? Also what's with the mixed theming? We've got a few random brands, plastic types, and.... bitcoins? Why not do all different currency types and leave out the stupid in-jokes? Or just use the trader front legends on the zoomer kit colors? Also the rest of the set & renders kinda just feels thrown together. Just bothers me so much because the zoomer kit looks so good but those tacky front legends ruin the whole thing.

Thanks for your opinion, but in my opinion and in the opinion of the thousands of people who participated in the inception of the project we are allowed to have fun and mix and match topics of interest. Just because there are keyboard commodities and companies in the kit doesn’t mean the kit has to strictly cover those. And we wanted some blockchain references in there. GMK Laser had 80s references but also cyberpunk references, and people seem to enjoy. The kit here is a light headed nod to the Zoomer generation and some of its interests such as keyboard goods and crypto currencies. It’s also a nod to the OG kit with extremely high contrasting keys. Shoehorning 12 sh!tcoins in the kit just to make sure all keys are strictly related to blockchain is a joke of bad taste since many protocols won’t be relevant 5 years from now. Which protocols are relevant is also personal opinion, there isn’t a consensus. At the same time forcing more keyboard goods became a bit boring. I understand and appreciate your feedback, but you’re commenting on a finalized and ready for sale product, consider joining our Discord for example so you can participate more in the design phase as your feedback and thoughtful ideas would be greatly appreciated!

GMK needs a major reboot. Not really the fault of the designers trying to satisfy demand, but such a glut of mediocrity. So many sets that are a minor variation on one or more previous sets that end up looking so same-same. Would love to see what GMK can do with PBT and/or more flexible kitting. I'm a big fan of ePBT (GOK x BoW looks and feels amazing) and especially KAT/KAM (look and typing feel), it's just a shame that Keyreative hasn't been able to get their mfg and qc ducks in a row. SA and MT3 for hi-pro keep it interesting too.

why would GMK do PBT? Their core business is ABS. It works, look how many sets they have in the queue and in production? Hobby just blew up and so much more crap hits moq.
I'd still rather wait for GMK than all these Chinese manu's found on Aliexpress making stolen IP sets.

Gmk isn't the problem. They make a niche product and they do it very well. I hate the new trays but otherwise I think they're doing fine.
If you're worried about kitting and colorways, why are you blaming gmk? They have nothing to do with either. Gmk just executes the designs they're given. If you don't like the designs, blame the designers.

I'm sorry, did Drop just protect MiTo doxxing another member of the community?? Can we please get this cleaned up? I'm appalled at MiTo's unprofessional conduct.

It's a holiday weekend. Nobody did anything. Without saying too much because I don't want the system abused, comments can be hidden or locked automatically if triggered by certain conditions. I'm leaving that chain locked, but have hidden the comment which doxxed another user.
