I believe that it "thocks," from what I understand. It sounds also like it's kinda sandy, if you know what I mean. Not sure how to describe it. But yeah, I love this thing to death already.

Anyone else has one? And if so, which one? Which type?

I got a Nuphy 75 v2, for the record, just yesterday.

    I done been down this rabbit hole for years :)

    I always liked Ducky's keyboards, and I like tactile switches. Started with a One w/MX Brown switches, then progressed to a One 3, also with Browns - but this board had hotswap sockets so I got to play around with different switches without soldering hassle. I found I liked the heavier weight of Clear switches, but I wanted to experiment with smaller form factors, so I got a One 3 SF (65% layout) with factory clears. I loved this thing until I started to develop tendonopathy in both wrists.

    I type for a living so I had to figure something else out, and wound up going full enthusiast with a 5x6 dactyl manuform:

    These things look bizarre but god damn, they're ergonomic as FUCK. Form and function are unified. It took me a solid 6 weeks to re-learn how to type but my wrists thank me every day.

    I just recently kitted it out with 78g Zilent V2 (silent tactile) switches and low profile DSA keycaps - feels like I've found the holy grail. It's bonkers how much better my typing experience is now.

    This is literally a tool of my trade, so fuck it I'm using the best tool I can get. Plus I just love how fucking weird it looks on my desk!

      I have a friend that has something like that. Amazing.

      I may one day get something like that, but for now, I'll just stick to my current one, which I'm already in love with.
