I'm gonna leave this post up in the interests of fairness because they're not well signposted - but technically this is offtopic for this community and thus against the rules. You might better off posting on !mechanicalkeyboards@lemmy.world. hopefully this community can still be helpful to you in this instance but in time we'll probably want to remove posts like this.

I don't think I'd draw that conclusion after less than two weeks has passed for a small business like that. Have some patience, hopefully there will be an update on your order soon.

I think a lot of the issue is the widespread use of the term Intellectual Property which, arguably deliberately, conflates a few completely distinct legal concepts under one umbrella.

It's idiotic that this even made it to an article

My thoughts exactly. "Guy states an opinion on social media" isn't really news especially when the guy didn't even say why he thinks it.

Also who cares? Each OS is "better" to different people who have different needs, why does anyone need to care what anyone else thinks about that? The only person whose opinion matters about this is oneself.

That looks to me to be larger than standard spacing (19.05x19.05) of the keys, does it not require a bit of stretching to use?

No, it is a separate thing but heavily inspired by the ts100 and uses the same tips. More like an open-source clone rather than a "rebrand".

I really love mine. It's just a great little iron and really affordable. Highly recommend.

If you don't like the gestures (like me) the most recent version has options to turn them off and give you buttons instead. For me thunder is nearly there in terms of being the experience I want. I wish it handled that back button better, but all the other apps like Jerboa also suffer poor back button behaviour too.

I think this is the answer, there might be more issues with the state of the soldering but the build guide says it needs them (indicating they're using i2c for split comms).

OP needs to add 2x 4.7kOhm resistors on one half of the keyboard.

For most it's just a matter of flashing some different eeprom on first flash and that's it. Most qmk splits define the EE_HANDS feature that allows the handedness to be written to the eeprom. So should be as simple as qmk flash -bl avrdude-split-right -kb <keyboard> -km <keymap> or if its a DFU device then swap avrdude for dfu

UK law makers won’t be able to enforce their law even if it’s passed.

that said, we should also always remember that unenforceable law is law that can and will be selectively applied. Something they can whip out against people when they don't have anything else.
