I hope this is not against the rules - I tried with multiple frontends to find the list of rules but failed.

I’m trying to find the right keyboard and have not had all that much luck using aggregators like keeb-finder or mechanicalkeyboards.com. I’m hoping someone would be willing to make a recommendation based on these criteria:

  • 100%, maybe a few less keys but the number pad is necessary. 100+% is ok
  • tactile switches
  • USB passthrough for the mouse or whatever else
  • audio passthrough with audio out jack and mic in jack. I think this is the limiting feature, seems to be phased out except by brands like logitech and corsair.
  • standard ergonomic design
  • case material is not important nor is the key material really

Thanks for reading!

    I use the System76 Launch Heavy and really like it. It meets what I believe you are calling standard ergo along with my take on your other requirements.

    Note, I’m am considering something more like the moonlander which is a split board for the future but trying to figure out how I justify it since the launch heavy will probably outlive me and my children.

      Incidentally the ergo board I have is a Moonlander. I absolutely love it and it helped with my hands being fatigued after typing a lot.

      I do have an entirely homebrew alpha layout, but I am also a crazy person.
