hmm that one sounds pretty bad, is it even mechanical? or some sort of buckling spring thing? anyway i like the sound of linears, just the deep clack of the keycaps bottoming out and no clicks from the switches.

I have a lily58 pro myself. it's pretty alright, but lately I've been considering going the other direction and keymaxxing to just have a bunch of macro keys for absolutely everything. All this time i've been trying to minimize the amount my hands have to move from the home row (so, less keys and more layers) which makes sense for the really common keys like letters and numbers (stuff on the top 2 layers), but then everything else becomes harder to get to and I find myself having to hit crazy 5-key finger twister combos to do basic stuff like ctrl-alt-delete. maybe the best solution is to get a big ass keyboard, do some basic layering for letters and numbers to keep those near the home row, but then setup all the other keys so that complex combos become a single keypress. since I don't use them as often, moving my hands away for a bit shouldn't be an issue, but actually might end up being quicker and more ergonomic because I'm eliminating the crazy layer combos. I was looking at a keyboard like picrel, the only issue is that it's not actually split, and i really like being able to move each half independently to whatever angles i want. Maybe the real solution is a split keyboard with thumb clusters and f-keys plus a macropad between the two halves (or beside or below or whatever) to both keymaxx AND have comfortable wrists
