![]() I did a lot of text selection and copying/cutting/pasting so I set CAPSLOCK+Z/X/C/V/B to be SHIFT+HOME/SHIFT+END/COPY/PASTE/CUT so I could easily do text operations by holding down CAPSLOCK and just pressing Z/X/C/V/B to do what I needed while using WASD to move around. ![]() Layer 1 (accessible by holding down CAPSLOCK) is my navigation. When I was on a 60% this is how I had mine set up: For it to be a viable daily driver you should have all the essential keys available to you where it's easy to reach and intuitive. Your particular keyboard has a not-particularly-well-thought-out layout unfortunately. So nowadays if you want to use a small keyboard like a 60% or smaller the ideal solution is for it to be fully-programmable meaning you utilize layers to be able to replicate the functionality of a full-size keyboard. ISO is asymmetrical, and that left shift key is ridiculously small. It's hardly an inconvenience, and I can now just buy any keyboard, or any keycap set without having to worry if it supports ISO, or having the privilege of paying an extra £30 for the ISO keys as part of a international/NorDeUk kit. usually when I type an e-mail address and end up typing " instead of then I remember :) Sometimes I forget to switch back and it's days until I notice. The only real difference is my pipe/backslash key is now # until I switch back, and and " have swapped places. ![]() I mean, I just switched to type the pound symbol, and I've not switched back yet. There's not really a massive difference between the two layouts anyway. I also have UK English added for the keyboard, and on the rare occasions I need to type £, I just win+Space to switch between layouts, then Win+Space after I'm done. You don't need to set the language to US English, just the keyboard. There are different ways to deal with it, but personally, most of the time, I do indeed set my keyboard to US English. but i've never tried it other than briefly in a shop. previously i hear the brown tactile feel is more typist friendly. when you go full speed on blue it sorda sounds like a typewriter so i guess that's why they say that. On gateron website, they say blue is for typist. im using red personally because the feel is similar to blue but i want it more quiet. browns have a bump that is called "tactile". so i don't think the switch will save you here.īlue will be louder and "clicky" but similar feel to the red other than this defined click at the bottom. for keychron i'm looking at the c2 for cheapness and this 3d traditional keycap shape. i don't think the difference in travel will help you not hit an adjacent key. Looks to me like the k5 has chicklet style keycaps and maybe they are more easy to miss left and right than if you had more 3d style traditional shape keycaps? the switch itself will only change the up and down feel when you do press the correct key.
