>not having need for it
only applies for using the default layout. You can use the win key for anything if you have qmk, having it act as function is nice.

It's basically just layers. If I hold the left spacebar Q = 1, W = 2, etc. Same with Tab. If I hold it down it becomes Control.

Keychron gives you replacements, why did you put those on?

I've definitely become more and more of a fan of the windows key. Loving Win+Shift+S
I could use AHK and just bind the shortcut to something else since I use it so much, but there are other things I use winkey for anyway which would force me to rebind the windows key and at that point, why have a WKL.

How do you type numbers on this keyboard?

If you are on a Mac, you need that key, since the Mac uses Command (โ) for most of the same shortcuts that other operating systems use Control for. But, the Mac also uses the Control key for its traditional purposes on the command line.
If you are on Linux, historically it doesn't use the Super key for anything, although some distros have recently started using it to call up the main system menu. Which I think is a huge mistake, and I disabled that function on my system! I like to use Super as a modifier for all my own global shortcuts, like workspace and window management. It shouldn't conflict with any shortcuts in applications.
On Windows. . . Well, I guess you need that functionality somewhere on your keyboard, but I think the bottom row is an awful place for it. I'd remap it to somewhere else if at all possible. Or maybe there's another key combo that will do the same function, but I dunno, I don't use Windows much.

do gaskets really mean anything? My keychron has those foams and I even put in the extra ones they gave and I can't tell the difference.

I primarily use windows and have only ever accidentally used the Windows key. On the keyboards I use that have the key, I remap it to play/pause my music player.
If you need to use the function of that key and are using a WKL, you could just map it to your second layer in VIA on another key.
Or swap to another keyboard that has one ๐

What do you do if you need that key? Do you map capslock to super? Also, what operating system do you use?
I've been curious about this. I'm not on windows but couldn't make the switch because I still need all three modifiers for various shortcuts in the software I work in everyday.

"One kidney left"
When they said less is more, they really meant it huh??

Same, but I like the way WKL looks. I'm considering getting one and just remapping a button I don't use, like right Alt or Ctrl or something, for Windows key.

Seing more Symmetrical WKL 65 would be nice imo, more choices ๐

Somehow people do it... but I use the windows key many many times per day.

Well itโs either that or some of us will just disable the windows key. Iโd rather just not have it at all if possible.

I recall seeing on a review somewhere the extras are for if you want it even more soft. It's not that I don't like the way it is right now, just don't feel much of a difference from having the foam gaskets.
