I just built a board for work with a Keychron V6 and Durock Daybreak silent linears. Absolute joy to type on, but I wish I had some accent color keycaps to make it look special, the WoB set I got looks great, but it looks like the generic keyboard I already used at work.

Just discovered Aegean Sea.

They look great, but unfortunately lack the lowercase Greek letters. As someone who uses the Greek alphabet as variables rather than for writing, while I know the uppercase and lowercase versions of each letter, having the lowercase symbols shown would be helpful. Oh well.

I am actually a southpaw myself.
That's the primary reason the numpad is at the forefront of all my designs.

I use it constantly for numeric entry, when doing graphics at work.
At night, I use it for gaming because I hold the mouse in my left hand, making the numpad/arrow/nav cluster perfect for button entry.

>after spending so much time not having to move my hands.... ALL THE WAY OVER to the dedicated numpad.

Ah hahah..... this sounds very familiar..... from a few accountants I know.... they're all desperately finding southpaws

And yeah, having things centered around "K" does sound smart. Far away from most "standard essential" shortcuts. Something I might consider for a future board.
