Yay it's here \o/

I'll never have to worry again about mouse space when playing :D

Before

After

It's a whole keyboard?

Soooo much better

@N00bPancakes nope, just the main keys you need for gaming

I want a palm-shaped keyboard with a key to switch sides.

@Root would be cool, but you'd need a sixth finger... Maybe foot buttons to change the "layers"?

@neeno It’s called a thumb.

@Root oh. I guess I had a brain fart there.

Actually, I was thinking about this keyboard I just bought, which doesn't have an easily accessible key to switch layers. But if you had two small buttons where your thumb is, one for the layer and another for the space, I think it'd work. I just think typing speed would take a huge hit with a keyboard like that.

@neeno Definitely. But they’re also half the size. Would make a nice mobile keyboard.

@Root oooh, there's this thing: https://www.tapwithus.com/

But idk about typing experience, it lacks feedback and the glorious "clicks" from switches. Definitely portable though.

Just curious, it's only usable for gaming?

@iamai nope, it works like a regular keyboard (minus the other half, obviously). I think it's possible to change the behavior of the keys in it's configuration software, not completely sure though.

Mmorpg players cry when they see half keyboard.

I've got a TKL keyboard because of mouse space. Cannot imagine using regular keyboard anymore

@iiii I want one so bad, but buying a whole new quality keyboard is too expensive for me rn, so I decided to just buy a cheap*er* half sized keyboard.

Which one you got there?

@neeno modecom volcano blade, but they've stopped producing ones with brown switches

@neeno yeah I was just thinking half a keyboard on alphabet side even despite the configs I have to remember the other side? 😂 But mouse space I wholeheartedly agree to that.

Thought about that, then looked at all the keys arma uses. Idea discarded.

Cost savings done wrong?
Wouldn’t work for me as csgo player, I’d rather get a tournament keyboard and put it sideways

Could've bought a larger desk for the same money

@electrineer I don't think I could, a new desk would probably set me back ~R$ 600 (U$ 113) and this cost me ~R$ 200 (U$ 37).

@neeno I expected that to cost 100$ minimum given it's a niche item. It's not that stupid a purchase then.

@electrineer oof no way I would spend 100$ on something like this, I'd just buy a new TKL keyboard.
