I’ve had positive experiences with Keychron products in the past, but I’ve moved past them as I now prefer orthogonal layouts. That said, I loved their support of QMK on my Q1 Pro and I really hope this ends up on that same level.

Do you mean really ortholinears like Planck or columnars like Corne, Sofle, Kinesis?

My bad, I did mean "ortholinear"!

Ortholinear, surely?

Which one do you use/have now?


You're right, I do have an ortholinear keyboard!

I have an Inland MK-47 I bought on a whim from Microcenter, but it's been absolutely transformational. It did require a fair amount of setup though:

- I swapped out the switched from crummy reds to some lubed Keychron Browns I had.

- I had some custom keycaps made via https://yuzukeycaps.com/ since the ones it came with were abysmal.

- I had to enlarge the cutout for the USB-C port in the case so it could fit cables other than the one it came with.

- The default shortcuts/functions were bad so I had to customize it in QMK.
