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....

Apparently that's not possible since the keys are not defective, I've basically been told to only use what I can, since I am unable to use the whole set. I opened a dispute with my card company, and Massdrop is fighting it. They have refunded other customers for their graphics not lining up properly but they won't refund me even though I literally cannot use the product. Their own return policy states "not as advertised" so while they will technically fit my Cherry switches, they won't work with Corsair's design, something they're apparently aware of but made no mention of in the listing.
The keys are great.
Massdrop's customer support sucks ass.
