That must be it, I wasn’t smart enough to link the actual image URL, I linked the post as you wrote 😆

Interesting tip on linking the url, I will try it. Tested it in the past but I think I did something different and didn’t work as I hoped

That could be it, but in VIA you can actually assign bluetooth host keys in order to switch devices, so a sort of communication between main board and bluetooth electronics must be happening!

Thanks! After the few days with a light use: very confortable, nice light texture, the dished caps really work well and are visually striking. I am only slightly slower than with the almost same board (Q10) with GMK CYL that I use extensively each day, so I would say the transition is really smooth. The reason for this is the very similar height profile of each row. Still, I believe that CYL is more efficient because I feel less “trapped” in each row than with MTNU’s spherical profile - as the correct typing movements involve more vertical finger movement than horizontal, so CYL imo makes more sense. The effect is obviously quite minor and I am nowhere near to being a fast typer, so take my feedback in this context ;)

As for your question, absolutely no clue…

Regarding bluetooth, at which (metric pls) distance you have connection problems? I’m thinking of dipping my toes in DIY boards for a compact travel KB but I would also need bluetooth - so the problem you’re mentioning could very well hit me too.

Thanks!

It is QMK and VIA compatible. I need to wire it to a computer with a Chromium based browser to customize it, but it works - albeit with some connection issues with my 2013 MacBook Pro. On Windows works flawlessly.

You’re welcome! More specifically, ColemakDH ;) Resources:

Actually it’s thought for touch typing, but having the correct legends helps sometimes and it’s just nice.

You mean the keyboard layout (Alice) or the keymap layout (Colemak)?

I don’t have a lot of experience with ergo keyboards, but I found myself liking this Alice/Arisu layout quite a lot. I can keep my shoulders and arms more relaxed (I’m also quite tall, so a bit more room for my arms and hands is nice…). Only downside of these Keychron models is the tall height of the board. One could use a wrist rest though - Keychron themselves sell one - but I don’t use one. I also don’t type without interruptions the whole day, so it’s ok for me. Easy enough to go back to normal/laptop keys due to almost standard stagger and key layout.

I think Wooting and other companies have similar offers. I am nevertheless excited about this one because Keychron does a very good job in offering polished but customizable products.

More choice is always better! I discovered this profile because of the Colevrak addon, which sold badly it seems and won’t be produced again in future runs - that alone makes it lose almost all the appeal for me. Let’s see how it pans out, as you say this could become a proper standard.

Sure they are expensive! Good news is, it looks like these designs are the very first offerings with this profile and with time a lot of options could become available (a second GB by another designer started before the first batch was even produced - MTNU 800)

Yeah, to me it really hits a spot where many things come together:

• retro-inspired look with a low, ergo shape
• double shot PBT
• GMK quality
• beige + orange colorway - love this combo
• Colemak addons

On Novelkeys there are some renders.

Here the profile comparison.

Yes and no, I think there is an opt-out toggle.

App drawer is there, too

The price is astronomical for a cutter, yet there aren’t any with the feature set it offers. It depends if the ownership of something unique and carrying a miniature yet useful overengineered tool is something that matters to you. In my case, the choice landed here for:

• office and work commuting EDC
• extreme compact form factor: being able to leave it in the fifth pocket was really helpful in a couple of situations
• fit and finish that could match the similarly small flashlight
• fidgety and novelty factor
• “buy it for life”: no moving parts, solid chunk of titanium
• I like to reward some small private life achievements with these king of “unnecessary” things :)

On the functioning:
+ really easy to slide open one handed
- Ti pocket clip quite stiff, so not as easy to take out
+ decent fidgety factor
- pushing the blade with the edge touching a side can blunt it (I think I fidgeted a lot with it at first and then had to sharpen it slightly again - solution is to take care of pushing the blade away from the side)
+ in use, it does its job very well, nothing to complain there

So: not flawless, but I love it and have it with me every day!

That’s unfortunate! I added a third link, it seems that depending on instances the links are fetched differently. I also tried to search for the community to trigger the indexing as suggested by the sidebar of new_communities.
