Why is VIA such a f****g nigthmare

First, most Feker "VIA-compatible" boards aren't actually QMK. They fake it out. The CIDOO ABM066 is another faker. And the Weikav Record. Epomaker has a few similarly emulated boards some of which are really awful. The Iqunix low profile boards are more fakes. What other VIA boards did you try? Sec

Keyboard recommendations🙏🏻

that missed keypress issue is a nightmare for gaming. between those two, the rk r65 is probably the safer bet for reliability since hall effect boards can be hit or miss at that price. but if you want something that just works and feels solid, i'd check out the Redragon K552 Kumara. it's a tank, sup

Keychron K7E5 mint switches

The full size Gateron Jupiter Banana are the best switches Keychron sells. OMG they're so much better than the weaksauce browns. So here are the best budget 65% I know about. The MU68 is less budget than the others but the wooden case is so lovely: Womier VK66 Pro * ($42) Womier Q61 v2 * ($42) Royal K

Royal Kludge R65 or Ajazz Ak820 pro

The RK R65 VIA is legit QMK but they have a bunch of variations so you may have to play magical-JSON-file until you get one that works. I have some of the more common ones here: https://github.com/ArgentStonecutter/keyboards/tree/main/royalkludge/rk_r65

Keyboard recommendations🙏🏻

If you’re thinking about the RK R65 with brown switches, it’s a good pick for reliability and feels nice to type on. The ajazz hall effect keyboard is kinda cool, but if you had trouble with missed key presses before, maybe stick with what you know works... For other options in that price range, che

Build for silent keyboard

Silent switches trump pretty much every other aspect of the build. I wouldn't worry too much about the acoustic qualities of the boards if you're going to put a real silent switch like that in them. Is that the QMK/VIA version of the RK R65? If so, go with that. If not, those boards both have horrib

Wireless Mechanical Keyboard under £60

The wired QMK/VIA versions of the RK61, RK R65, and RK R75 are good. I was unable to get the wireless RK R75 to connect to VIA and RK support was clearly confused so I returned it to Amazon rather than debug it further. I haven't tried the new RK R87. For the RK R61 the Redragon k717 is basically be
