I sincerely appreciate this video / series. It does not seek to entertain, but rather to educate. While I love our community creators like HipyoTech & Glarses - this is more so the type of content that I needed to see as a beginner.
I think there is probably a big untapped market for custom full size keyboards. A lot of people (myself included) just like having the comfort of having all 104 standard keys. I just found out about the Pangea, and I'll probably buy one of those. The kind of people who just want to buy a nice looking quality keyboard that will last for 30 years. If it's worth spending $400 on a monitor, a keyboard is probably worth spending $400 on as well. So just like a nice premium aluminum custom keyboard. Instead, you basically have a choice between Keychron Q6 (or Pro/Max) and Monsgeek M5, two keyboards with basically no customization options.
Novelkeys never fixed aluvia, they send replacement keycaps and they were worse than the keycaps they were replacing and my own local vendor had to fix it. I know they might have been good for other things but Aluvia was a massive fuckup, the QC was a mess
@@Blacksimon no doubt, it's selling twice more expensive here in the UK, and cherry switches around 6.2USD per 10 whereas on taobao it's 2.2USD, always using proxy to get them from China.
I revisit this every now and again because it’s great but just caught one funny thing I hadn’t noticed before: “No one will ever match geon’s prices” rip + L + ratio + get cycled
I dont get this idea of buying new switches with funny names, rainbow colors and put 40x THOCC in ur video, when you get legit get mx blacks, brake them, diamond polish them if u are able to, spring swap to ur OWN prefered feel and weight and coat the stem with little lube BOOM, smoothest shit that ever existed with a sharp CLACK.

Big shout to Geon! He's a real one.
meetups really help prevent any pessimism from interacting online all the time fr i love meetups
online communities suck but I love irl meetups
TX 65g medium springs rock my world, completely transform MX Blacks into a Rolls Royce feeling switch
You spend half of this video suggesting you're going to make a bad video, but it's so great. Thank you for sharing.
🤣

Simon is my keyboard friend
(usually)
@@AAAHBOOGIE respectfully
We love you too Simon
Thanks for sharing!!!!
let's start the week with positivity
Oh my god, that shirt is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I literally burst out laughing when I read it. Where'd you get it?
It's a custom job I got made a couple years back.
It's based off a (hibi) Kate dress
@@Blacksimon Thanks Simon!

Oof
I was suckered into buying expensive switches. Now I'm just interested on hyperglides.
If you come to Amsterdam or Seoul, I'd LOVE to meet up Simon.
do agree with most, but how can you get TX for 4-6 dollars? even on taobao it's about 7USD
If taobao tx are at $7, then $7 is your benchmark
(Inflation is a bitch)

Hi! may i know where do you get that picture at the back from? is it possible to get it online?

TaeKeyboards and Alexotos would rank pretty high on a list of kbtubers
They are definitely one of the kbtubers of all time

most of the issues in this hobby are caused by late stage capitalism, luckily there are plenty of people who are not motivated by money in the here.
