Re: PSA: If you are using HDMI, check for full 0-255 RGB support

The most noticeable difference would be in the black point and in contrast, not in colours that much.

Yes, the F flippers are intechangeable, no issues. The differences are minor.

No implementation is needed. Just tag the posts you want, and whenever you need to find all posts with a certain tag do an advanced search with the tag as the term.
Sure it's one step more than clicking the hashtag, but it requires no implementation.

Re: The history of Cherry stabilisers

If you mean the stabiliser wires, in general they are, with the exception of 6.25 wires. There are two variants, one straight, the other with a bend in the middle. If you use the bent with a plate it binds.

Ivan had a GB for screw mount stabs about a year ago, so the answer is probably yes. (I can't remember if they were ordered from Cherry or GMK, but I think I remember GMK)
