No official announcements yet, but the tea leaves say end of Q2, maybe bleeding into Q3. So June/July-ish.

Decided to try out a new keyboard. Bought the Glorious GMMK 2 and it’s pretty damn nice for the price. Hot swappable switches and the build quality is solid.
It has linear black switches, which feel really nice but definitely a bit strange from a tactile feedback standpoint after being on Mx Blues for over a decade.

Man, keyboards are fricky. On the one hand, they fascinate me. On the other, they annoy the piss out of me.
Currently using this guy with hand added sound dampening/cushioning rings: LINK
I like it a lot, but keyboards still piss me off. Maybe one day I’ll learn to stop bottoming out my damned keystrokes

I actually built a custom keyboard for Christmas.
Keychron Q1 pro with morandi linear switches… like typing on silk with nice deep pops.

They definitely can be just a completely different level of OCD obsessiveness. My muscle memory on the MX blues has me short stroking(that’s what she said) keys. I’m just used to that feedback they have.
With that being said, these linear switches are like silk. Way lighter of a touch and so smooth.
I was honestly pretty shocked at how different they felt compared to any other keyboard I’ve used before.

Speaking of keyboards, whats a good mouse?
I bought my kid one for Christmas (I have no idea what I'm doing) and he said the response wasn't as fast as his older one, which my wife got him from Amazon for like 6 bucks. He couldn't edit his Fortnite build fast enough as was getting smacked. I'd like to get him a good one.
ETA: He likes is current keyboard, so I'm cautious to get him another.

I just switched to a wireless Logitech g502 x lightspeed and I really like it. It’s as fast and responsive as being wired imo.

Every variation I’ve had of the g502 has been excellent.

The g502x lightspeed is super light. Weighs around 3.5 ounces total.

I hated my G502X until I got the ICE pads for it, night and day. Crazy how shitty the stock feet are on those things.

Just pull a goku and force yourself to use a super heavy mouse for like 3 months then switch to any lightweight mouse and it’ll feel great regardless of the actual weight

Exactly. I practice 12oz curls most nights and the 4 oz mouse hasn’t been a problem.
