Reply to GMK Lavender. My first group-buy - probably my last. by oakwardly

Lavender and all the kits that went into group buy around that time suffered the most from covid/the supply chain issue. That was the height of the keyboard craze when there were literally 15+ group buys a month. I am also waiting on lavender and it is definitely the longest I've had to wait for any set since 2020. Besides that and daifuku from 2021, I haven't bought anything else and kind of done with the hobby- don't need anymore keyboards or keycap sets.

Reply to Why should I not buy this James Donkey A3 (my first mechanical keyboard) by [deleted]

Hey, i would suggest you to look into what Akko sells. I can attest that they Have quite a nice quality for the amount you pay. As you are using shopee, you might be lucky and find them for even cheaper.

I have a keychron K6, and it is solidly overrated, even after spending time on modding it.

Don‘t be discouraged by people on here only preaching customs, parts can be really hard to get depending on where you are.

Personal suggestions: I really like Akko’s jelly white switches. They are linear and light. Also, RGB is nice to have, but i really dont ever use my knob.

Reply to comment by BigotedCodeine in my first build! by Frequent_Share3364

that's what I expected but the board turned out much more poppy/clacky, I will post a sound test. I still like how it sounds so I'm not disappointed but I'm trying to figure out how I could make it more thocky. is it the gateron milky yellows I used?
