System76 :popos: :ubuntu:

Could/Would you use this keyboard with these keycaps?

@system76 Well, at least if it used uniform colours or had each colour grouped, sure. Otherwise, heck no 😄

@system76 if you don't look as you type, your years of muscle memory typing should pay off. However, the second you look down...you are lost.

@system76 the keycaps don't bother me, I like them, but the top 3 rows not being aligned with the bottom 3 due to the laptop style scrunched layout does, that and the split "spacebar" :/ There's just too many keys in the wrong location even if it had standard keycaps for me to usefully use this layout.

@system76 I couldn't because I can't touch type despite using computers daily for 44 years. I need letters and numbers to know what key I'm about to press.

@system76 If I don't look, my fingers know. But that is kinda visually confusing.

@system76
I could use it, but would prefer it with a european-style enter key and `<` between shift and `z`, and without the num-pad.
