I did this in reverse. First the 30s-40s typewriters, then mechanical keyboards.

I think they are talking about the void switch by riskable

I've seen people use metal ball bearings too.

12.5 WPM increase from a switch change? seems dubious.

My box pink silents are too sensitive. If I look wrong at them they actuate.
Love the feel tho.

The number of people who settle for less than BS blows my mind. I’d prefer a full layout, but my inability to settle for less than a Model F leaves me with Joes F77. Now he’s got the beamsprings and the comic comes full circle…

I truly believe that my IBM Selectric II has the best feeling keyboard I’ve ever used. Everything about it just feels amazing.
It’s loud as hell and weights 50 lbs, but the keyboard feel is great!

Blasphemy! Typewriter layout is a curse and a disease! Split columnar stagger is the way forward out from this crippling wretchedness! Be ye not deceived by these aesthetically pleasing devils!! Hearken unto me, lest yon carpals become tunneled, yon shoulders become knotted, and yon backs crumble to dust!

They got their inspiration for them from the github and the hackaday article, I bet.
