I'm a Linux user. Then you want a QMK keyboard. What size? 40%: Inland MK47 * ($35) 60%: Redragon K717 Alcor * ($33) CIDOO QK61 * ($60) Skyloong GK61 QMK/VIA * ($54) Royal Kludge RK61 QMK/VIA * ($40) Womier WK61 Pro * ($31) YMDK DK61 * (barebones, $88 wooden case, $38.50 bare PCB) KBDcraft Adam 60% * ($70 l

How does she feel about Legos? https://kbdcraft.store/products/adam This is a serious board with QMK firmware, using the VIAL extension (the better option for QMK management), but you build the case out of Legos and it's mounted with foam gaskets that attach to blocks and support the plate. Other mo

No, they are bottom of the line boards with proprietary firmware and no virtues whatsoever. Get this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-Mechanical-Ultra-Compact/dp/B089GN2KBT It's not a premium board, but it has QMK firmware, which also not only makes it the most adaptable board in the pr

The Q4 is tray mount so won't have the loose switch issues. South facing, though.

Seems the RKS70 is best for those new to splits; < $100 also! https://www.amazon.com/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-Bluetooth-Mechanical/dp/B0C88V7LQK

GenXer here. My first computer was a vic20, xmas 1981. The 75% keyboard is superior... And those with a volume knob, like the RK Royal Kludge m87. The tiny screen and extra knob for settings is also superior. Change from mac to PC quickly, along with connection types, and more. I use autohotkey for

RK is meh. I suggest get mo nalng AULA 75. It sounds way way better than Royal kludge. There's a reason why AULA is highly recommended as best budget board

Check RK Royal Kludge, more affordable than Keychron, great quality. Silent switches are nice and not noisy. Battery lasts 2 weeks+ if backlights are set to turn on on click only.
