Rk21 Numpad Not Working
Your issue is due to the firmware. The firmware is the software that is running inside the keyboard. The firmware in the ek21 is rubbish. It cannot be made not rubbish, except by writing new firmware for it and I don't think that there is enough information about the hardware to do that without some

KN85 vs Epomaker TH85, same price, Mac user, does software compatibility matter? Which should I pick?
VIA with a real QMK board, source or not, is so much better than any proprietary solution with or without VIA that, well, it does make a difference.

Ek21 not detecting in VIA
Which firmware are you on? I found that the "V0100" in the common dropbox link going around does not work. The V102 in u/MrEleventy's comment works (at this link https://epomaker.com/cdn/shop/files/EK21_firmware_e5918468-ba90-4e90-8eee-327cbc6bbe13.zip?v=3656676633569817369)

Best full size?
I haven't checked out the Galaxy 100 but a lot of Epomaker boards are not actually running QMK, they have some kind of port of VIA on top of crummy proprietary firmware. My ek21 was the worst. What country are you in cuz I'm seeing about $30 for 110 from Metrikeys.

Getting QMK on Zuoya GMK26?
It's running QMK firmware, and it's configured for VIAL. Zouya has not released the QMK source code for it. You should contact them and request a copy, they are legally required by the GPL to provide you with one. Though if they don't your options for forcing them to are limited. :( If enough people
