Not a new board (made it in Jan?) but boy howdy was this a bad decision purely of my own making.

I was like, "yeah, let's go lopro for real!" At the same time, I decided to go with pinks, with the smallest amount of force required to clickity clack. Turns out that was a bad idea. My fingers are apparently small hammers and even the gentlest breeze will type on the board. It looks friggin beautiful, but oh my god is it hard to type on.

That said, I was on a 36 key split before this and looooved it, so adding the extra columns at the ends threw me for a big loop as well.

At least I have another pretty board to add to my display!

Aurora Lily58. PCB was by SplitKB. Probably an awesome board, but as it turns out I prefer super tall caps.

Ah, fair enough. I have a low profile choc Sofle on the way which is why I was wondering! Been using a Q1 with Keychron’s KSA lately but decided I want to try a low profile board again. Gotta preserve my wrists and I don’t like wrist rests.
