Sunsets are the only choc tactiles. Looking forward to the silent linears coming from lowprokb!
So, you're saying I should be temp banning you as well?
Is making a post asking if there are moderators "on topic"?
The submissions they made were on topic, just maybe a topic you didn't want to discuss. I absolutely think this person misunderstood the intentions of the community and got defensive, but the community also dogpiled on this person. If maintaining a healthy community is the goal, we should accept responsibility for being a part of the problem.
I'm not against locking all the posts related to this issue, but I'm not gonna ban the person. I'm not gonna fight any of the other mods if they have different opinions.
I wasn't trying to correct you at all, just acknowledging that the counter isn't representative of everything.
Things didn't get this far from the actions of a single person, so if punishment is expected to be passed out then I don't think it's fair to punish only one person. Should the people submitting things to make fun of this person also have their posts locked and given a temp ban?
An active counter doesn't mean things aren't being seen. I've been here and seen everything unfold.
This person isn't acting alone. They've submitted stuff that is on topic and everyone else engaged. I'm not sure what action is expected of the mods.
Since you're going hotswap, you've already got about 3mm of space on the back of the PCB. if you make your case just a tad taller, your battery could fit under the PCB.
unfortunately, using a Xiao makes this approach less than ideal. The Xiao's battery connector is a pad on the back, reducing the amount of space a battery can fit.

Hey all! I've been working on a new standard for interconnecting a main keyboard pcb to modules.
What does this mean? If a keyboard pcb supports the interface via a connector and some basic wiring, it will allow you to use the available open source modules.
I designed an open source keyboard called vulpes minora to prove out the concept, along with 4 modules that you can connect to it. Even before officially announcing it, there are have been 3 keyboards that have adopted it, along with 2 modules developed (Great work by zzeneg , Ariamelon, and Ben!)
Here is a link to see the full list of supported keyboards and modules.
The VIK repository is here, and it highlights how it works, how to implement support for it (for both a keyboard and a module), along with working examples.

If more people adopt it, more people will be incentivized to make modules, and we'll all benefit from it. No more days of "hey, check out this cirque trackpad, let's figure out a way to hack it onto existing boards!". Instead, it will be "Hey, we should design a VIK module that supports this new cool thing!". Then people will be able to just swap in the new thing, write some basic firmware, and fold it into their existing keyboards.
Thinking out loud here, but if it starts to get popular, we could even work with the QMK folk to potentially create some standardized way of supporting modules (from a firmware perspective) in a more streamlined way.
Anyway, questions and feedback very much welcome.
If you'd like to discuss it in more depth, please feel free to join the fingerpunch discord server, and chat me up (sadekbaroudi) in the #vik channel.

There was a recent article published on kbd.news if anyone wants to look through that as well

Looks like some custom MBK to me.
