You can still use the knob for volume, just set the volume on your speaker to max, or in the middle thats what I do since I hate reaching for the speaker knob

Oof, I feel that. I bought GMK Oblivion the first year my kid started playing football. Multiple football seasons later I still don’t have these keycaps. In fact for the last few months they are marked as completed and in queue for packaging.
I’ll never buy GMK again.

i don’t understand why there so many mistakes from domikey. second one i have seen in a month or so. let kprepublic try to help you. if for some reason they don’t you can email domikey directly since they are selling in stock sets now. service@domikey.com they did respond around a week or so later for me. so not the fastest but hey it’s something

Can you expand on why “yes” is a valid answer?

Domikey Pumper ordered at KPrepublic. Just wrote an E-Mail to their support. Let's see how they handle that.
EDIT:
Their e-mail came with an auto response: "contact us via discord or website chat."
I chose chat.
They demanded a photo with a packaging shipping label. Which I of course already tossed in the trash.
Then they said: "Okay, take a video of your problem and send it to us via cloud link (like googledrive).
I know they just want to avoid beeing screwed over but I never heard of such methods before... beside of that the support person ended every single of his textes with: "You could have read about that in the FAQ"...
WEEELL... in the end they told me that I get a repleacement. Now I'm playing the waiting game.

alexotos has a great video on youtube.
you can use krytox if you don't want to buy extra lube for stabs. You could also use dielectric. Just dip the ends of the wire and you're good.

I like krytox 205 for stabs and switches. It's a perfect lube for that. But I personally like to go thicker on the wire, Id use a dielectric grease like the one you posted just on the wire and no where else.

I lubed my first board with this. It was a mistake. It still works and it sounds good but there is like a weird sticky resistance feel in the switch. I still use it for stabs on cheap builds but over all just stay away from it. This stuff does however work very well around the house for door hinges, cabinet rails, I just used it on my clothes dryer to remove a bad squeak. Amazing for things like that, not so much on keyboards.
