Ask HN: Which computer keyboard do you use?

I use a Fnatic MiniStreak TKL (no numpad). I never used numpads much, and I like to be able to keep my mouse hand in closer. Switches are Cherry MX Browns. Custom keycaps, though that's only for appearance (pudding caps to diffuse the RGB), doesn't alter performance. A gamer keyboard very much leaning into the "esports" theme, but excellent for typing on too. Price was reasonable as mechanical keyboards go. Had it for quite a while now, very happy with it.

Don't think they sell this particular keyboard anymore, this is probably the nearest to it in their current range: https://fnatic.com/products/mini-streak-rgb-tenkeyless-silen...

I for one am addicted to the Keytronic KT-2001 which happens to be rubber dome. I just love the key travel and the feel of typing on it. I have hoarded 10 of them now to save for a rainy day, so I keep a good supply :).

Spec: couldn't find it, chryosan22 on YouTube seems uninterested in reviewing it, and not on deskthority

Feels better and more durable than the fancy logitechs. I'm bad for keyboards so the fact this one has lasted a year plus so far is a very good sign and strong reason to recommend it.

An older Das Keyboard mechanical keyboard [1] that's worked flawlessly through years of big writing jobs. Love the crisp key feel.

Logitech K800 for years, got 2 in the box for if one breaks.

Ergodox EZ. 80% resolved pain in my hands after years of stupidly using the MacBook keyboard.

The Apple on that comes with a iMac or Mini. It's old and corded and feels just right.

Zowie Celeritas. Cherry MX browns with two silicon rings under the key caps to reduce the travel. It's full size UK layout including a keypad, and it's solid with no flip out feet etc. Keep it simple, it's the best.

I got to use an SGI Octane for a while and fell in love with its keyboard, just the right amount of clicky. I later acquired an entire box of 'em, so hopefully those will last the rest of my lifetime.

Input Club K-Type with Halo Clears. But lately I've been partial to MX Reds also, and was thinking of getting a UHK with Topre box reds.

WASD 105 key ISO layout with red cherry switches. It's pretty okay, but I'm not super satisfied with the debouncing.

Kinesis freestyle pro. Helped a lot with pain, and barely requires adjustment if you switch between that and a standard keyboard.

Lily58 Pro with 65g Zealios. Got a set of steel bottom plates and wooden top ones that make it feel really premium!

Kinesis ergo 2 for fifteen years. My wrists feel as good as when I was 16

Ducky One 2 RGB. Hands down the best keyboard I've ever used.
