Took me your comment to realise it wasn't switch colour. Thought it was about all the noise from switch clicking

Very lucky for you then, my flight from HND to SYD last week hit 2 hours of severe turbulence

I just pay people at this point because my mental health literally degrades and it stresses me out and I go insane lol. Just me though but lubing switches is only something I've done three times after being in the hobby for 2 years

The 40% keyboard Discord exists, I don't know if I'm allowed to link it here. Lots of people willing to help willing to share keymaps and configurations, if you want I can share the invite in PM.

They look really nice! The render in that color didn't look as good as they do in real life.

>Many psychologists equate collecting to the hunting instinct that is latent in all of us
Lol, save the evolutionary psych nonsense. Fomo on rare occasions isn't necessarily a bad thing, but if it becomes the driving force in purchasing things (like every mat that is a limited release), then you're no longer buying things for the pleasure of owning them, but to avoid the anxiety of not buying them. That's where people get into trouble. Negative reinforcement can be very effective at continuing a behavior like shopping. Speaking from experience, I look at OP and worry.

You will eventually find your groove and shortcuts to cut the time... after lubing like 5 batches of switches lol. But even then it still takes me hours to lube switches

Reply to Novelkeys - Poor Customer Service by k4zie
At the end of the day, the companies involved in keyboards are still novices in understanding how to appropriately communicate with their consumers (and are still absolutely horrendous in other issues [e.g., avoiding damaging consumer trust through loot-boxes]).
In keebs - you should never build without checking the PCB. Because of the burden of proof that companies in keyboards have, it is in your best interest to record opening boxes when they arrive to verify condition & also test the PCB or other aspects. Keyboard companies WILL deflect to avoid accountability. Novelkeys, while good in some cases, is particularly known for this (e.g., when products arrive that aren't of expectation, they just hit ya with the copium).

I love that Rama has taken so long to get their product out the door that clone sets are already in customer hands. Might have to cancel my order and grab a set of these, at least they'll actually show up.
