Found a CTRL v1 high profile at a thrift store. Was filthy but works fine other than missing alt key.

One of the feet on my drop ctrl fell off and I lost it, emailed Drop about getting a replacement and they said they don't offer replacements. I was pretty baffled that I couldn't get a fucking small rubber foot replaced on my $250 keyboard. Luckily I found the foot a week later wedged between my des

Just my first mechanical keyboard. Now I want another one

I have been collecting and repairing since the 1990s. I got out of the hobby and in 2019 built a new rig so I contacted some hobbyist friends and they let me in on the new vendors and tech. I bought a Drop CTRL tenkeyless and thought (from the marketing) that would be it. Then I received the kit and

I was washing my key caps with warm water and soap soaking in a bowl and my wife dumped them in the garbage disposal. Luckily, only one key was damaged before it was turned off. My Q is damaged and need a replacement for my Drop CTRL v1. I can’t find this set anymore. Any ideas?

Got the Corsair Vanguard 96 😲

them giving up Icue is the only reason I was thinking about getting this keyboard. I like corsair keyboards, but they don't make anything that's worth me installing icue ever again. Guess I'll go with the Wooting. Not sure why their webapp is trash, They bought Drop and using they use web based app

Halo75 V2 smooth keycaps

I've replaced the keycaps with the: https://drop.com/buy/drop-ctrl-mechanical-keyboard/details?searchId=1a595610d0c25d60bea27321907ba2f8#details and even 1 year later, they're still not smooth. If it becomes smooth after several years, it's normal.

Crush 80 - Way better than I thought it’d be

I'm not a big fan of linears, I swapped out my Crush 80 with Gateron Baby Kangaroo V2s and Max Keycap Unown (Pokemon) caps, and it thocks very nice. Blows my Drop CTRL with Holy Panda X clears out of the water.

Haven't been keeping up with keyboards but I want to find a very thocky keyboard. TKL and preferably with a knob. I used to have a Real force 87 and it was definitely my fave of all time. I use a Drop CTRL v1 now and the switches have some chatter. Don't care too much about gaming. I wanna prioritiz

is the core still being maintained ?

Oh. At one point I used program like sharpkeys to rebind the key in windows. But for the last couple years I have been using keyboards that allow me to remap any key to anything I want. There are many on the market. I have a Drop Ctrl and an Anne Pro 2. I don't recommend these keyboards but they are

Here's the situation...Got up this morning and the RBG lights on my Drop CTRL V2 were out. Only the pinkish colour lit up when I hit any of the keys. Unplugged it and plugged it back in, nothing. Restarted the computer, nothing. Searched on DROP and found the Fn + A command would cycle through the l
