Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

It's beautiful! What's that called?
I'm running 78g switches myself... wild to imagine taking it to the other extreme. Just whispering across the board.
This particular keeb is called Helix. There's also Sofle, Lily58, and other, and they are only different in whether the encoders are included and key layouts.
78g?
Sweet, thanks. When I decided I needed a split keeb the Lily58 made it on my short list. Ultimately went with a manuform instead though. Split keebs for life! How do you like the displays on yours? Always wondered if that was worth the spend.
Haha yeah I've always been a real brutish typer when I get into a flow and unleash the monke meat sticks
I actually didn't do anything fancy with displays, just what layer I'm currently on, but I am using the keeb in a way that I almost never even look at them. They do tell me if the keyboard is stuck (happens because of my soldering skill issue). The displays are very, very cheap, so it's hard to regret buying them.
