What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

I ordered the Box Brown and they feel very close to Gateron Green's! The Bump is a bit higher on the Boxes and the force on the Greens is a bit more & no Loud Click!
I replaced my Gateron Browns in this Board (which I didn't like at all) with these Box Browns and, I like them!
So now I got a Board with Gateron Greens, Black and Kalhua Box Browns!
Works with the Hot Swap-able SMD Led Board from Glorious PC Gaming.
A few switches came with Pins Bent, I tried to fix them, a few I couldn't get completely straight, seem to be working for now anyways.
I like them better then the Gateron Browns, which I found had almost no Tactility at all. Worse then Cherry Browns, which I don't care for all that much. They are OK, but not my fav switch by far.
I say they do have a good amount tactility.
