So how do you find a mechanical keyboard? I could search the web, of course, but then I'd be spending a lot of money on something where I don't even know whether I like typing on it or not... How do you do it? Go to keyboard store?

@wallhackio Perhaps the Clodsire has answers for me?

@vaporeon_ if im not mistaken i searched on youtube for mechanical keyboard recommendations and some techy youtube man made a list and for their budget option they suggested the one i have now and i was like "sure ill give that a shot"

@vaporeon_ so not a helpful approach given how youtube is behaving for you these days i guess

@vaporeon_ enthusiast subreddits can be really good for this sort of info. it would not shock me at all if a mechanical keyboard subreddit had a wiki of recommended products organized by budget range

@wallhackio You know Reddit a lot better than me, have a link?

@vaporeon_ https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/wiki/buying_guide there's a list of keyboards in the 0-100 USD range if you scroll down

@wallhackio Funny how the IBM Model M and Model F are on that list... I can find Model M listings for around 100$, but Model F listings seem way more expensive than that... Are they cheaper in America or something?

@vaporeon_ could be, or perhaps the wiki is out of date

@vaporeon_ they're expensive as shit over here too so i think the wiki is out of date

@wallhackio Also, apparently the Model F doesn't have a Ctrl key? (The Model M does.) How are people using a keyboard without a Ctrl key?
