That's actually the one thing I don't like about mechanical keyboards: typing. I love the feel of a mechanical keyboard, but it's harder to write with one than with a membrane keyboard. Of course I'm still on my first mechanical keyboard, so perhaps others feel different, but I also vaguely recall reading that typing isn't exactly the forte of mechanical keyboards. At least I've got quite used to writing with one, and I guess it might also depend on the type of switch you have. |
I learned typing on a typewriter and then early keyboards. The feel of a membrane or typing on a screen is all wrong to me. I did revert back to 2 or 6 finger typing (index and middle finger + thumb) rather than with 10 but type plenty fast with just those.
With a mechanical keyboard I feel 100% sure I've hit the right keys and pressed them correctly, on a screen or membrane keyboard I constantly check whether the right letters appear while on a mechanical keyboard I simply have my eyes focused on the keyboard while typing.
That's my favorite keyboard, I got a ps/2 to USB converter taped to cable so I could keep using it when ps/2 ports went out of fashion. Neutral beige, calming color :) And the keys don't rub off either which always happens with newer keyboards after lots of use. Crumb proof as well lol.
