@nimakro Some good points about the POK3R here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/41qul0/what_is_so_special_about_them_pok3r_keyboards/

@nimakro I also find the navigation keys, pgup/pgdn/home/end to work extremely well, especially when you flip switch 3, which causes CapsLock to function as Fn. I feel less fatigue because I strain my hands less due to the reduced need to move my hands. The fingers can reach almost everywhere without moving my hands. The feel of it is also fantastic, so I just feel better when I use it. This can't really be explained, nor underestimated.

Try one, you'll see :)

I dont have a pok3r yet, but I switched to a TKL mechanical a few weeks ago

I already notice less strain from having to move a large distance from keyboard to mouse. Even if you try to do your best to do all the stuff with keyboard there are some things you just cannot do without a mouse. so having the travel distance less is very good

one of the things I think I will really like about the pok3r is the fact that it can remap the caps lock. I hit that key too often 🙂

Oh yes, the travel distance is important. It's even less on the POK3R than any typical tenkeyless.

Plus, those programmable keyboards automatically urge you to find more shortcuts in your apps so you'll automatically use the mouse less.

I really like the mac, but there are too many things that you can only do decently with the mouse

the trackpad makes it even worse

Yeah, that sucks.

and in intellij when you want to do a commit and push at the same time you have to use the mouse

to select the dropdown

you could do SHIFT=TAB but that feels very unnatural to me

No, you can do it with Alt-P or something I think.

I don't use the mouse when I commit and push.

Wow thanks for the info I will check it out... @ron That's why I use Linux with the [I3](https://i3wm.org/) windowmanager where you can almost work without a mouse

my desktop is cinnamon upstairs I should look into that

Brb, pizza.

are you running that over ubuntu?

@User uploaded a file:

No I am running Arch-Linux 😀 But you should be able to install it with ubuntu what I really like about I3 is that the config file is really straight forward and you can navigate with keys (But I have to warn you its a Tiling-WM)

@edvin Mhm that looks yummy

That pizza is the best I've ever had from an electrical oven. And it's 3 minutes walk from my house. Dangerous combination.

it looks quite good

so 2 issues closed on keepassFX, only 5 to go before the first public release

now my darling wife wants to go shopping, see you all later

Well those Pok3r look really nice and I like the programmable feature, so I think I will get one 🙈 ..Were did you guys buy ours on Massdrop? And which type of keys would you use silent red cherry mx?

@nimakro Choice of switches is highly personal. I prefer the blues if I'm in a place where I can make sound. The tactile feedback is fantastic. I have a red, going to buy a silent red. There is no tactile feedback, so you can't be exactly sure when you have actuated the key, but in general it works fantastically well.

@abhinay commented on @edvin’s file : That doesn't even look like a pizza to me 😛
