I really liked the feeling of the mechanical keyboards. I’m a newbie at this and I bought one, and got pain in wrists within a few days. So had to stop using it and go back to my almost flat Logitech.

It seems it’s required to use palm rests to have a good experience?

By design, mechs are quite a bit taller, because the switches are taller.

Unless you’re a “floating” typist, I would recommend a palmrest.

Lighter springs make tactile switches feel so much better too.

Never heard of any of those brands but I dig the look of the blacked-out one in the middle. Are the keycaps shine-through with per-key RGB?

The only keycaps that are shine through is the ones in the top left (TM680), none of the rest are.

i gotta say: Puddings are somewhat nice, but always too gamer.

I reckon, “Pudding refined” with milky white bottom and Cherry style legends would look nice on most keebs.

Just like the other person, I have no idea about the brands listed, but I’ve been looking for a numpad recently. Looked it up and seems like this is going to fit my needs perfectly. Thanks for sharing!
