Finally upgraded from a third-generation Apple Wireless Keyboard to a Nuphy air75. It was only... crap, 13 years old?!?
Ye olde 1st gen Magic Trackpad will stay for day-to-day work, to be swapped out with a Razer Pro Click for Blender & slicer work.
Happy w/ the chassis & Red 2.0 switches; supposedly lower profile and more lubrication than the earlier version. They sent over a spare Brown+Blue switch as well - so tested the other two. Still happy with the Reds!
Two of the biggest personal changes I made during the last 12 months:
1. We moved from the German South (#Munich) to the very North (#Flensburg).
2. I got a low-profile mechanical #keyboard (#NuPhy #Air75).
I regret nothing.

Check out my lid, you guys https://devlids.com/lids/czottmann
Base "layer" is a XtremeSkins Waveform. Much cheaper than dbrand, no complaints so far from me.

My MacBook's built-in #keyboard is German but on my desk there's a mechanical ANSI keyboard (#Nuphy Air75). When I’m at my desk I want to use the #EurKEY layout, else I’d like to automatically switch to the German layout.
Easy to do with a #KeyboardMaestro macro:
Triggers:
- At system wake
- When the Mac is unlocked
Actions:
- If USB device with name containing “Air75” is detected, set Keyboard Layout to “EurKEY”; else set Keyboard Layout to “German”
Super-simple but useful!

I hear the #Nuphy siren call again, damn it

I don’t love the Return key but the rest feels very much like …home to me. (I live near the beach.)
@iamericfletcher I'm not super hard in to the hobby or anything, but I have a #Keychron Q2 that I really like. Also, I've seen heard good things about the #NuPhy Air75.
TIL there's an alternative open-source keyboard mapper for the #Nuphy Air75 that works w/ macOS, Linux and Windows, named "ν∂ / nudelta".
I just successfully remapped those two silly special keys (screenshot and Siri) as F13 and F14, respectively.

Good stuff.
In other news: EurKEY is a pretty great keyboard layout w/ my #Nuphy Air75 (which is US ISO):
> EurKEY is based on the american keyboard layout. That's because the american layout is much more convenient to type specific characters. These include `://` in `http://`, `[]` and `{}` in source code, or slashes (`/`) and backslashes (`\`) in a Unix shell.

Hat tip to @hmans / @hmans@mastodon.gamedev.place for the suggestion.
Is anyone interested in a 10% coupon for https://nuphy.com, purveyors of fine mechanical keyboards? (I <3 my Air75.)
Just holler, I have a few of them to give away! (I get no kickbacks for them.)
