I’m confused about the “per key RGB”. It doesn’t look like there’s any shine-through.

I love the presentation of the design decisions. But the slow reveal/not showing the damn design... is incredibly off-putting. Lost all interest just based on the slow baiting.

Another me-too keyboard from uninspired minds.
Of course, nothing pleases me these days so take my comment with a grain of salt.
My ideal keyboard would have 104 keys in a so-called left-handed configuration (numpad > nav cluster > alphanumeric). Essentially nobody makes a board like this which is a shame because I think it makes the most ergonomic sense for right-handed keyboard+mouse power users (hello).
Of course, I seem to be alone in that regard. No surprise there. 😂
I suppose that eventually I'll have to buck up and make my own.

Yeah, I have a numpad but I really just want a full 104-key board with the sections arranged in reverse order.
Most so-called southpaw keyboards are just TKL or 96% with all the keys mashed together into a claustrophobic nightmare. Others are TKL with the numpad on the left.
There's only one company I've found that makes the layout I want but only with Cherry reds.
I've emailed them but they won't make it with any other key unless I order in quantities.

Also they don't make a wireless version and also won't unless I order quantities.

Drop's keyboards always looked interesting to me, but the fact that they only come in ANSI layout means that they are a no-go, unfortunately. Although I do understand that Drop's main market is the US, I would really love if the keyboards also came with an ISO option as they would be absolutely more interesting to us European users. The past few years have been a bit rough for Drop I guess, given that there's been a huge decrease in products being offered and we've seen the company entrench in just two markets (audiophile and mech keys), so it does not surprise me that you guys are trying to place your bets on what is most probable to make you money, which is ANSI keyboards for the US market, but it would be nice to see some additional options as well.
I'm not even going into a lot of detail with the model itself here, this is just a more general consideration. Again, I understand the business decisions here, but I really do wonder how much more an ISO-compatible PCB and gasket mount would cost.

DROP Should be taking a look at GMMK Pro and make the prices better than the GMMK pro If not why would someone get this board?....... NOT ME. This should had been the New SHIFT mechanical Keyboard instead of a 75% layout

JohnGarrettI'd recommend looking into Keychron Q-series boards, as they are finally releasing all the other layouts after they did their 75% (Q1) and 65% (Q2) versions.

O-Ring 60% Boards And Why I Love Them
Top Left: CustomNeko (Bakeneko With Through-Weight) With KKB BoW And Accents, Top Right: Cannonkeys Bakeneko60 With GMK Norse, Bottom Left: Ciel60 With KKB Abyss, Bottom Right: Jixte60 With GMK Analog Dreams “Simplicity is boring, but I still love it.” - Sukant Ratnakar. When I first got into the hobby back in 2017, there was no way that I would’ve thought that I’d enjoy a 60% layout keyboard. Sure, maybe a 75% (I didn’t use the nav cluster for non-work situations, and when I was at work, I needed a numpad) in order to retain the function row, or, at the very least, a 65% where I had dedicated arrows, but a 60%? Absolutely no way! I need dedicated arrows! I need a function row! It’s funny how preferences change, huh? For the next installment in my “Why I Love” series (the first was the “Why I Love Prototype Runs And Helping Keyboard Designers” article I wrote a few weeks back), please allow me a bit of your time to explain to you not only why I love 60% layout keyboards...

Keyboard keys not registering
I have the Lord of the Rings Rohan (Aldburg edition) keyboard. Recently the G, H, and T keys have become unreliable. The mostly work but every now and again they won't register the keystroke. The H key especially. Does anyone know of any potential causes (and a fix) I should be looking for? Thx, R

What to do with old PCBAs
I am thinking about buying two of the V2 PCBA's for my CTRL boards to replace the old ones. If I do, what should I do with the old ones? Would this be something to take to like an electronics recycling place? I don't feel like the regular garbage can is where they should go... I doubt anyone would want to buy them nor do I want to deal with the hassle of trying to sell them in the first place. Thanks!

Desoldering, Mill-Maxing, And Why You Might Want To Learn Both
Thanks to StoryboardTech’s fantastic article, you finally learned how to solder! Or at least, you’re committed to learning. So, what’s next? Well, if you’re brave enough, why not learn how to desolder as well? And when you feel confident with that, how about Mill-Max? You don’t necessarily have to know or learn how to solder before learning how to desolder or Mill-max, but in my opinion, getting comfortable with soldering is a great step towards learning how to do the other two, and if you know how to solder, you can practice desoldering and mill-maxing to your heart’s content since you’ll already have the tools from learning how to solder! Well, at least most of the tools. Let’s start off with the good ol’ disclaimer section first, however. Disclaimer These are my own opinions and my own thoughts, and if I’ve learned anything in life, it’s that we all do things in slightly different ways. Whether it be deadlifting, desoldering, Mill-Maxing or even baking...

Features for Enthusiasts After finalizing the layout, we thought deeply about how to make a typing and customization experience that the community would love. Carefully incorporating user feedback and Mech Keys market trends, these were the features we knew we had to have: 1. South-facing switches to avoid keycap interference 2. Reliable hot-swappable sockets to maximize customization 3. PCB-mount stabilizers that come factory-tuned to minimize rattle 4. Innovative RGB underglow 5. Per-key RGB that can be customized 6. Accessible configuration software and QMK firmware (our new configurator will launch before the SENSE75 ships, more info to come soon) 7. A premium fit and finish, made of aircraft grade 6000-series aluminum 8. A gasket mount keyboard that genuinely provides a gasket feel Although it has taken far longer than we imagined possible, we’ve carefully and painstakingly achieved all of our design principles. Today, we’re proud to release our first Studio Story for the SENSE75. Hit “Request” to get more updates, and tune in next week to learn more about the SENSE75.
