@governa I would pay real money for that.
Also would pay for a modern Gateway Anykey #keyboard, preferably with laptop-style chicklet keys in ergonomic layout like a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000, but with full function keys across the top AND down the left side, that are independently programmable with macros, reassignments, or whatever.
Ideally, there would be discreet keys for programming and profile switching, and no reliance at all on the host device for support drivers or software.
@governa I really wish someone would implement an inline USB #FOSS device that allows any keyboard to become "programmable" with no software on the host device.
I believe a #RaspberryPi 4 or Zero can function as an HID device, I just don't have the dev capability to implement.
A hardware-only solution is portable between computers, allows use of any #keyboard, and can be programmed on the fly using keyboard shortcuts, like the old Gateway Anykey keyboards. Bonus for enabling profiles & macros.
Oh, I guess the default iPhone keyboard does (do swiping). But I’m VERY used to the Google one (although I’m sure they’re sending tons of telemetry back). Ugh. Suggestions?
Today's compose key sequence is:

Keychron lies.
Despite their 'assurances' your data will be abused and leached, they lie, and do not honor any settings at purchase, no account was made, paypal online purchase used, via their site, and their #unsubscribe URL is a tracking fest, with yet more risk.
Despite ensuring the "send me news and offers" was clearly unchecked at time of purchase, I'm now being spammed.
Reconsider any purchase from Keychron, or use a disposable email address.
#Keychron business practices are clearly #lies and they *will* ignore your preferences and spam you anyway.
Regardless of the products quality, they've lost any future purchases I might have made for additional key caps or switches for the #Keyboard, with this piss poor decision to spam me after saying no.
I will simply block all email from them now and not purchase their products ever again. (might even shit list their domain on any or all kit I manage)

Weird keyboard owners of Mastodon. Anyone know of a 90 degree split vertical in production?
I tried the Kinesys line but didn't like them at all and my old SafeType is out of production.
I could save an #IBM model M #keyboard that was about to be sent to the e-waste. It is the dirtiest keyboard I have ever seen But it works and will be cleaned. It is in a good shape, too! #mechanicalkeyboard
