Finally my bliss themed keycaps arrived ✨
That is such an incredible looking keyboard. I just ordered an rk61 with black/gray/cyan coloring since it's my favorite color combo. I love this though, the colors are so nice. Also awesome screen lol

It's not much, but it's damn better than writing on my laptop
The keyboard's an RK61 Royal Kludge, and the tablet's an old Galaxy Tab A9+. Overall a pretty budget setup, though I am planning to get a BOOX Palma 2 soon which I think will feel better. Oh, and a wooden phone stand from IKEA. Arguably the classiest part.

selfmade bamboo case
what kinda tools did you use? Is it multiple pieces put together or one large piece that was carved out with CNC tools? Sorry for the 20Q but I've had thoughts of doing this with my RK61 and this looks awesome dude.

Any quiet mechanical keyboards?
Look for keyboards that use red or silent red switches. Steer clear of blue switches if you want it to be quiet.Check out the sales for Redragon, Royal Kludge, and Keychron that suit your budget. The RK61 or Redragon K552 with red switches is a good, cheap option.If you want something that's really

the "i will just build one good budget board" lie we all tell ourselves.
Bearing in mind that some "premium" boards are kind of bad, so this isn't THAT huge a hurdle. Actually "better" or at least in the same class. I would say I like the 5075 VIA better than any aluminum board because it's not a chonk: Akko 5075B VIA is rather good. Comes with extra parts so when you lo

I have achieved the THOCK
Havent tried the ak820 but I think it really depends on what you're going after. Things you may want to consider are: size of the keyboard, sound profile, and the feel of it. As for brands, I've tried Royal Kludge (rk71, rk61, rks98), Aula F75, E-yooso low profile, GMK67, and Keychron k12, all of wh

What do you think of this keyboard?
This one is easy so far, if their web app is hosted at QMK.something it's the scam. If you see "usevia.app" or "vial.rocks" it's at least emulating QMK. Emulating? Yes, there are proprietary boards that are "VIA compatible" or "QMK compatible" that have ported the VIA module to run on top of an emul

Experimental new RK61 firmware with improved layout and color-functions feature.
Source code Firmware Image This new firmware for the RK R61 uses VIAL for configuration, has a significantly improved layout (work in progress), and has a feature (enabled with Fn-backslash - CF TOGG) to highlight the available function keys when Fn is held.
