I love keyboards. Specifically I love remapping them with Karabiner to extend them to do more awesome things for me.

I am currently using builtin 2020 MacBook keyboard and love it. I love the low key travel as I get tired typing on most mechanical keyboards.

Notes

• Gateron Browns low key travel mech switches maybe are nice. Need something low key travel ala macbook.
