I think Ive come to the conclusion that "end game" is when I run out of money.

Tastes change, but atm my endgame is a Topre Realforce 87u with BKE heavy domes and KBDFans sliders in the Norbaforce housing with galaxy console powder coat with Amazing Chocolatier caps. I've gotten ahold of everything, just waiting on the Norbaforce. Endgame+ will be a matching Realforce 23u.

Glad you posted something regarding end game! I do have similar questions for all the MK lovers out there.
Agree with @LatrFlex and I do think end game will take some time to "complete" if it ever will :p I tend to get pretty greedy myself :p Layout - probably the most important - I love 60% but sometimes I crave those arrow keys - so a keyboard 64-71 keys layout would be it. Switches - probably really important - really digging the BOX Thick Clicks right now. BOX Navy in particular. Aesthetics + Quality - keycaps, case (material, weight, etc), artisans, cable, LEDs - Huge artisan fan here, don't know if I will ever have an end game for Artisans. Would definitely want a cohesive theme for these.
Never ending criteria for an end-game keyboard for me, perhaps it will change, perhaps it won't.

If their anything like the Jade they are pretty loud, but much deeper sounding than a blue.

End-game shoud be every single thing you wanted accomplished:
- Favorite switch
- Favorite layout, either by size, programability or typing layout
- Favorite Case, by Color, material or inclination
- Favorite lighting or no lighting at all!)
- Favorite keycap, by material, color or profileyou want
- Favorite cable, color, lenght, coil
- Favorite artisan
All these little things make your board your own.

I have like a 900$ dollar budget and just got gmk modern dolch, so I’m good on keycaps. I also have my mat and coil. I know I am a disgrace to keyboard enthusiasts, but I don’t like thock. It’s ok I guess. I luv those smooth clacks like alpacas. However I still don’t know which linear should I get; linear gang btw. Also, I have a variety of keyboards to choose from like the mode 65, Vega, and Keycult No. 1/65. (Yes, I also prefer 65% most) But, I hope people in this discussion have more experience on what I want. I know it’s based on opinion, but I don’t knowwww. Can anybody please help me decide.

TrumanKimTbh my favorite board would be de KBDFANS KBD67 hotswap (got it in red) with ZEALPC Orange Healios (Silent Linears) and these babies are really fun and quick to type on.

Once my daily driver keyset is complete, I'll probably back off of buying keys for a while.
I do intend to eventually pick up another GMMK-TKL and one of the full keysets as my work keyboard.

My keyboards are pretty much the way I like them.
I collect keycaps because I like how folks take the time to make something other wise invisibly utilitarian worth paying attention to.
So I don't think I'm going to see endgame on my collection so long as folks keep making sets I think are worth keeping.

How to sell things on Drop & How Drop charge them?
Hi , this Kyle from China. Since a month ago, my team wanted to build a brand to produce the high quality of mechanical keyboard and headset to sell aboard. Now we already got the license to do so, and we can't wait to bring our products to meet everyone. But the products are still in the period of designing, it would take some time :( There are some questions we can't find the ways to solve - how to sell keyboard on Drop, and the details about how Drop charge per product? - Actually I sent an email to Drop Studio for some questions, but I didn't receive the answer.( Drop Studio also mentioned that they can contact me only if they were interested in my design / products ). So I'm here ask for help. If anyone can answer my question, I would really appreciate it :)

Hey Drop, the official Black Friday is really late this year - 11/29. Do you plan to start a sale before then? If so, when? Extra credit: Hints about what to expect?

What is a good replacement circuit board?
I spilled on my DROP CSTM80 keyboard and damaged the circuit board. Where can I get a replacement circuit board? The ones on the Drop Shop site do not look the same as the one in my keyboard. Can you please make a recommendation? Thank you.

Is the drop alt v1 compatible with the official qmk configurator?
I use a Drop Alt v1 and much prefer flashing with compiled .bin files to using the desktop configurator app. Drop's online configurator has been refusing to compile keymaps, while the QMK online configurator at https://config.qmk.fm/ has keymaps for Alt v2 but not Alt v1. Are the Alt v2 and Alt v1 compatible enough that a .bin file compiled for v2 will work on my v1? Thanks for your help!

I'm unable to run the drop keyboard configurator setup
I have windows 11 and I've recently got the cstm80. I'm trying to flash the firmware, but I'm unable to run install the configurator. Every time I try to run the setup file nothing happens. The version I'm trying to run is: Drop+Keyboard+Configurator+Setup+24.9.6-322.exe I've tried running as admin, but nothing I do gets it to run. I'd appreciate any help.

I saw what seems to be to me a fitting meme- the scene from the matrix with the statement that has entered the consciousness 'there is no spoon' being replaced with 'there is no endgame'. (I can't find the GIF right now, unfortunately)
For me, personally, I just like to experiment and create and collect- so I don't even know what an 'endgame' keyboard would look like that would squash that desire for the process, rather than a physical item.
So I guess my questions is- what is endgame to you? Or is it just something that you'll know when you see it? And why is it your endgame?
