Not a fan of the design honestly. Don't really like these. Don't blame you me neither..i prefer the Tada68 layout.. and leopold FC660...both much more expensive alas. But looking at what people are doing with the GH60 amaizing.. nice builds on a budget..still you would have to solder.. or pay someo...

you could always try to build one your self.. i was surprised to see how cheap a GH60 PCB costs.. €28 of course that going the DIY road don't know if going in to that rabbit hole will save you € in the end.. doubt it..hahaha https://www.banggood.com/GH60-DIY-Mechanical-Keyboard-PCB-Support-Breathing...

it's hard to say what the future will bring i don't have a "crystal ball". I can however share with you what i would consider worthwhile improvements that go beyond my switch preference as i don't know what the future will bring that preference could change and i believe in keeping an open mind.

I'm sorry to say that I haven't made any progress on true programmable firmware. The keyboard factory does have a key remapping tool that we've been trying to clean up for release for a little while. But it's slow going because they themselves subcontract development of that tool, don't have source...

I kind of feel strongly that Concept is King here. The Hermes Rocket didn't have a nav cluster or a numpad or a function row. This keycap set should remain small and compact, just like the Rocket. Basically, the set is aimed squarely at writers (and aspiring writers), not gamers or coders or spread...

i have never asked or wanted a low profile switch. For me thinner or RGB is not a need i associate with a keyboard for me. As i mentioned in my youtube comment the feel of a switch is key. Cherry should innovate and improve on that front. In my case a tactile lighter smoother mx-clear would be real ...
