Things you wish you know when starting out. (lemmy.zip)

I've had a ROG Azoth (don't judge) keyboard for about a year now. Been using it for both programming and gaming, and I really like it, but there are a few issues (software being the obvious one). So I've decided it's time to put together my own keyboard. I started watching some YouTube and yeah.... I'm out of my depth here.

So I was wondering if maybe people could share things they wish they knew when starting out so I don't mess up to badly.

I've already found this switch tester which I figured would give me a general idea of what kind of switches might be for me. Other than that, I'm not really sure how to proceed 😅.

I'm not interesting in doing any soldering.

Nooooo! I Love my code. Feels like it was just yesterday I got it.

Got mine in 2016 myself and still kicking

My coworkers hate when they end up having to do something on my computer. I wonder why…
