“This is a great keyboard! It looks amazing, and it sounds incredible. I made it my main work keyboard so I could experience typing on it as much as possible.”
“I should have looked in the VIA supported keyboards list. The marketing said VIA compatible, but it's not "supported". You have to manually import a bare-bones JSON file that lacks tons of features that other VIA keyboards have. This keyboard is nicely built…”
