What do you think of this keyboard?

This one is easy so far, if their web app is hosted at QMK.something it's the scam. If you see "usevia.app" or "vial.rocks" it's at least emulating QMK. Emulating? Yes, there are proprietary boards that are "VIA compatible" or "QMK compatible" that have ported the VIA module to run on top of an emul...

Wireless Mechanical Keyboard under £60

The wired QMK/VIA versions of the RK61, RK R65, and RK R75 are good. I was unable to get the wireless RK R75 to connect to VIA and RK support was clearly confused so I returned it to Amazon rather than debug it further. I haven't tried the new RK R87. For the RK R61 the Redragon k717 is basically be...

Glorious GMMK Pro, FB Market Worth?

I regret the GMMK1 I bought. They are an overpriced gamerbro company. If you want a 60% you can get MUCH better deals than that. Redragon K717 Pro * ($30) CIDOO QK61 * ($60) Skyloong GK61 QMK/VIA * (Make sure you get the QMK/VIA version, $54) Royal Kludge RK61 QMK/VIA * (Make sure you get the QMK/VI...

Looking to purchase my first custom keyboard

With that keycap set you need a TKL (80%) down to a 60%, and since it looks like with that profile for a 75% or 65% you'll need to use novelties for the navigation column you probably don't want to go with those layouts. So I would suggest 60% or 80%. Under $200 is no problem. Here are some QMK/VIA ...

June 27, 2025 Weekly "General Help Post?" - Please post all general, recommendations, and help questions as a top level comment under this post. Thank you.

I have been amazed at all the great new 60% QMK/VIA boards recently released, starting with the new Royal Kludge RK61 and Skyloong QK61 QMK/VIA versions. Since then there's been the CIDOO QK61, Redragon RK717, and most recently the Womier WK61 Pro. In 65% there's the XMX M67 Jadestone and I noticed ...

looking to buy a good keyboard, but not sure which one to get.

None of those are "good". Royal Kludge has a few QMK boards that aren't running their awful old proprietary firmware. https://www.amazon.in/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-R75-Mechanical/dp/B0CWGR5KM9 https://www.amazon.in/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-R65-Mechanical/dp/B0CNP1WGD1 I have their new QMK RK61 and I've tried out the...

If you want silent you will have to buy silent switches and swap them out. There are only a handful of silent prebuilts and many of them are ass. https://github.com/ArgentStonecutter/keyboards/blob/main/replacing_switches.md I don't know of anything decent full size that cheap. 60%: Redragon K717 Pr...
