I need a new keyboard. What do people recommend these days? I've been rocking a Logitech MX keys for last view years and enjoy the low profile but want to move into the world of mechanical keyboards.

Nice, yeah that switch from low profile all the way up to full mechanical seems like a big jump. Do you use a wrist rest? I'm drawn to the low profile mechanical but the layouts on those seem pretty cramped.

I used to have a wrist rest, but ditched it when I switched to a Leap V2 chair. Yeah - I thought the same thing about some of the layouts being a bit cramped. I do think I had more typos for a bit after switching to full mechanical but that went away. It just feels better to type now. YMMV.

I've been going down the rabbit hole that is switch types! I think I'm drawn to tactile switches and a quiet click would be pretty satisfying. Not sure I can go without that numpad though!
