I'm actually disgusted with this price. It's just a purple PCB. A satan gh60 is of very similar quality and is a third the price on AliExpress.

Hey, actually by experience I meant the building experience in general. PCBs like the Dz60 or similar that offer a lot of compatibility tend to have a lot of holes in them, which is why when you actually solder switches you have to be very careful about alignment. But unless you are very anal (I am, lol) most people dont gaf, and would prefer to save in an already expensive hobby.
As far as hot swap goes, I'll be honest Im not keen. I used to love the idea of it, and was very excited for my ctrl to arrive, but after actually using it, I can safely say the hot swap is not for me. That goes for both built in hot swap capabilities, and modded (holtites, kailh hot swaps, etc). I say this because most holtites just aren't that good (loose and wobbly) and unless you solder the holtites in (which kinda defeats the purpose of hot swap in the first place, which is to partly avoid soldering) its loose af, and you always risk ripping out the entire holtites when changing switches.
Some vintage switches include the popular vint blacks, hirose, nixdorf, invyr pandas (Holy pandas), etc etc. There are pcbs and plates that support alps, I use alps switches in my boards mainly actually. Built with a hasu pcb and a brass plate in the tofu case from kbdfans.
The hot swap is definitely convenient if you like trying between the easily available cherry mx, gateron, and kailh switches, but I guess for me I much prefer the flexibility and option soldering provides. And tbh it scared the shit out of me having to rip my switches out of the hot swap. (and I don't like any scratching from the switch puller on my expensive switches lol)

I don't know why this is 120$, I can buy a GH60 for like 35$, LEDs sips for next to nothing, do this myself at half the cost >.>

yes the per-key RGB means a huge difference, but it does not worth that much....

FYI the Anne Pro does not have the same RGB features that the Pok3r and the Zeal60 have.

I see this seems to come with a "firmware download."
Does this work with the vanilla QMK?
In other words, will it work flashing the unit with a build I can do myself from the github repo?

The Zeal60 code is not a true fork, it's just in a development branch until I merge it back into QMK master. I keep it up to date with QMK master every time I do a new release of the default firmware.
It's also completely open source code.
If that's not "OSS" enough for you, then fine... I am sure we will survive without your business.

So I would need to get this + switches (like whichever purple ones) + keycaps (like Ducky PBT) + an enclosure? Then, if I wanted a numpad, that would be an extra $40-$60? Is that correct?.. So I'd essentially be looking at likely $350 or more for a full size keyboard?.. Ridiculous...

I totally forgot about the GK64. Kinda limited to one layout though (not to mention north facing switches), and Typhoon wanted a full size anyways.

I know it's got a lot of features and stuff, but I gotta admit, it's pretty expensive

schyYeah >$100 for a PCB is kinda insane when you can get something like the DZ60 (which comes pre-soldered and supports everything this does except in-switch RGB) for $30 or others for even less

Here's my Zeal60 with silicone gel keycaps from the first run. The PCB is really well-labeled and thought out. A Zeal96 would be my dream board.

CajualnessNice. Here's mine with a mix of GMK Skeletor mods and GMK Sky Dolch alphas (aka SkeleDolch). I have the other combo of Sky Dolch mods and Skeletor alphas (aka Skyletor) on a iQunix Lambo/Mint Gons PCB.

If the upcoming Zeal65 will be compatible with M65-A, I will be forever grateful. :)
