  • I really hope so, it should be taught, because for me it was a slow learning process. First I started using Obsidian, and moving all my notes from Evernote, Notion, and others manually. After that I moved to Logseq, which is like Obsidian but open-source. And the last step was using an open-source syncing tool (Syncthing) to have my notes synced locally in all devices. And now I have been 2 years self-hosting my notes in a really easy way.







  • I do not use it for gamming, so I cannot answer that, but maybe you can use only the left part and the mouse for shooter games. I would need to remap AWSD because I use Colemak layout or maybe use another layer to move to Qwerty.

    However, I use it everyday for working as IT consultant, I don’t do programming really often anymore, but I don’t have problems typing numbers or special characters (;,[]/<>…). In fact, you just need to memorize where they are and the layer, but your fingers move much less than in a full size keyboard.


  • Don’t remerber exactly, because despite I build it some months ago, the pieces I bougot them almost a year ago. Anyways here it is an estimation:

    • 1 PCB KpRepublic BM40: 45€
    • 50 Gateron Brown Switches: 15€
    • 48 keycaps XDA: 25€
    • 1 Aluminium case for BM40: 25€
    • 1 Carbon fiber plate for BM40: 10€

    So, around 120€. I mean, it is not cheap, but I am really happy with the result. But I am sure it is not toe most expensive thing you can find into this rabbithole 😂
