My hunt for a new keyboard.
TLDR - Loving my new custom GMMK 2. Glorious Panda switches are fantastic.
There’re way better options then those on the market now. Also, if tilde is important to you, consider a 75%.
Full-size keyboard or bust.

I did love my full size CODE… We will see if the 65% sticks.
Always looking to learn, which keyboards are you liking?
I have the Keychron Q1, which is 75%, hot swappable, and SOLID. Price is really good too, and it’s QMK.
Eh, kbin seems to have swallowed up my original reply. In addition to the keychrons, some cheaper 75%s include the Lychee G80 and the Feker 75. A more premium option that I’ve handled in person and thought was nice was the Zoom 75.
I guess I was mostly concerned at seeing the Drop Alt: That’s just overpriced and not very good by now; 3 pin sockets when a lot of nice switches are coming with 5 pins just doesn’t cut it.
Honestly, I think I will probably stick with the GMMK 2.
As long as the keyboard supports shift + escape for tilde (they said theirs did), i really don’t see a need for a 75%.
If you use it often a three key combination gets old real quick.
