Don’t tell me they are going the route of a signature (pun intended) board? I can see that being a good idea in practice, but I am not sure I trust them to pull something like that off…
I don’t know. I think it would be better if they just teamed up with something like CannonKeys or Hibi.
I still remember the early days when they were making their own themed keycaps sets. They were not great.
I appreciate them and what they do, but they didn’t really have a young person with pulse on the community. Why would they to be honest? I always heard their regular business dwarfs anything from the hobby.
Yeah, but I think the days of POS systems needing physical keyboards is probably diminishing rapidly. While the mechanical keyboard enthusiast market is growing… at least for now.
I also think they need to get invested in a new keycap profile. I’m a fan of SA, but after trying URSA and appreciating that the classic look can also be wildly comfortable, SA isn’t quite what it once was to me. I also have a soft spot for MT3 as well.
A while back on the Ace Keyboard Discord, someone said they were doing an IC for an all-red SA set similar to this. Never saw anything come of it, though I’ve been keeping an eye out.
That’s what I love about this place though - it’s casual, but full of useful information. The atmosphere is friendly with a sense of humor, while being free of elitism and mostly free of shitposting. (We have a little fun sometimes.) I do use this site religiously - and it’s probably because that corporate taint hanging-over most of the internet just isn’t here. Fresh air! It’s like, organic, man
Apparently they’ve changed their typeface to a more modern sans-serif with wide spacing, but this one is a little more accommodating to additional letters thanks to more normal kerning.
I haven’t used my plotter in years but once I get it talking to my current computer I’ll make a new sticker post. :3
