My hunt for a new keyboard.
TLDR - Loving my new custom GMMK 2. Glorious Panda switches are fantastic.
There’re way better options then those on the market now. Also, if tilde is important to you, consider a 75%.
Full-size keyboard or bust.

I did love my full size CODE… We will see if the 65% sticks.
As long as the keyboard supports shift + escape for tilde (they said theirs did), i really don’t see a need for a 75%.
If you use it often a three key combination gets old real quick.
Always looking to learn, which keyboards are you liking?
Eh, kbin seems to have swallowed up my original reply. In addition to the keychrons, some cheaper 75%s include the Lychee G80 and the Feker 75. A more premium option that I’ve handled in person and thought was nice was the Zoom 75.
I guess I was mostly concerned at seeing the Drop Alt: That’s just overpriced and not very good by now; 3 pin sockets when a lot of nice switches are coming with 5 pins just doesn’t cut it.
Honestly, I think I will probably stick with the GMMK 2.
I have the Keychron Q1, which is 75%, hot swappable, and SOLID. Price is really good too, and it’s QMK.
