[high lion]

how does wooting software when theres a for example 3.5mm total travel switch does it self adjust?

[glacial wind]

it does

[sacred elm]

is he even getting v2

[silver rover]

No idea. I just have these 'backup keys' for the rest that don't fit on a 60 percent

[tawdry tree]

why the heck does it include 3 2U keys for different rows

Ohh

numpad?

[silver rover]

yeah numpad

[tawdry tree]

well

[silver rover]

i didn't mean to respond to that, but yeah

[high lion]

anybody? maybe got a mchose

[tawdry tree]

you can use a 2U key on 2.75 and 2.25 but it won’t look great

[high lion]

https://tenor.com/view/squidward-spare-change-spare-some-change-begging-poor-gif-18999842

[tawdry tree]

you do have an extra 1.25 key for the middle one it seems

[silver rover]

xD thanks for the heads up then, I'll either find some keys for it or just settle

[light agate]

hmm

https://kbdfans.com/collections/case/products/461e-case?variant=42378647961739

[silver rover]

ah, for anyone with cerakey keycaps, there is a set called "H SET-Split SP" which basically has the stuff for a split keyboard

[tawdry tree]

Rakka dual MCU

[tropic urchin]

or some might say so the night may reign 👀

[tawdry tree]

catchup product bro

😭😭

[calm pulsar]

I like mustard

[tawdry tree]

I like catchup normally but not this kind

[tropic urchin]

@sacred elm my hand is still cold 😭

[calm pulsar]

not even a role for 10th anniversary

[sacred elm]

🥶

[tawdry tree]

true lmao

[sacred elm]

because the pad is COLD

Wonder when can we order v2

[high lion]

is this legit

[tawdry tree]

I don’t trust him

[high lion]

put him on a cross

[tawdry tree]

or the boards he’s testing

[tawdry tree]

exactly

[high lion]

i just wanna get sum cheap shit for rt

[tawdry tree]

mchose is decent

[high lion]

i got their mouse

[tropic urchin]

him saying 80he cheap is a red flag lmao

[high lion]

what does this mean

[polar girder]

Yeah I mean it’s putting the 60HE where it should be

[tawdry tree]

baka, he’s looking at the mchose

[polar girder]

and there’s some cool stuff

[high lion]

oh yeah theres full list

misinfomration from me

[calm pulsar]

yeah the strap on both sides is insane

[high lion]

wait it really got that

[tropic urchin]

revised

[tidal frigate]

Well he is using xlat

[tawdry tree]

just the switches and knob

[sacred elm]

Yeah, people were shitting on wooting for bad stock experience, it seems way better now

[tawdry tree]

doesn’t mean anything at all

[tropic urchin]

bro called me baka 🤣

[sacred elm]

sussy baka

[tropic urchin]

#cooked

[tawdry tree]

ly tho

[tidal frigate]

He is using wooting latency machine

1:1

[tawdry tree]

doesn’t mean anything at all

[sacred elm]

its not wootings

[tawdry tree]

wooting customized

[tidal frigate]

Okay

[high lion]

deadass idc if its like super low or high am i gonna see any difference at all

😩

in a typical rhythm game

[tawdry tree]

where u from?

[high lion]

guess

[tawdry tree]

if asia get sayo

[high lion]

come on bruh

bartholomew is no asian name

poland

[tawdry tree]

noob

[high lion]

smh

[tawdry tree]

ok get mchose

[high lion]

i wanna get the typing experience too

aight

if i end up really liking it im modding that shit

[tawdry tree]

just try it

see how it is

then do whatever

maybe get switches or sum

don’t think there’s a lot you can do to mod it tho

like case swap wasn’t possible iirc

[high lion]

nah im not that deep into allat

just switches and keycaps

maybe lube too

would be clean ash with some blank black keycaps

now though

ughh

ima just get the cheapest one

i dont like how the shipping costs like 30% of the keyboard

its far more reasonable on aliexpress

[kind helm]

@tawdry tree curious your thought on wooting v2

[tawdry tree]

catchup product

split space = fumble of the century

[high lion]

deadass do you think its fucking mid

[tawdry tree]

switches are nice

[high lion]

besides switches nothing else seems to be revolutionary

[tawdry tree]

catchup, as in not innovative.

[kind helm]

thank you, me happy

[high lion]

makes sense

[kind helm]

literal trash in my book

[tawdry tree]

💀

[high lion]

my view will depend on the cost of it

[tawdry tree]

switches are great

[high lion]

if they make it crazy expensive fuck that

[tawdry tree]

and knob too (hopefully)

[kind helm]

the foam upgrade is crazy though

MAXIMAL FOAMS

[high lion]

optimum prime ass build

[tawdry tree]

thockson done did that already

[kind helm]

[high lion]

@tawdry tree found a deal on ali for 45 usd should i just pull the trigger with the mchose ace60

[tawdry tree]

they need to send him a free one for that for suree

[sacred elm]

rejoining the server to hate on a new product is crazy tho

[tawdry tree]

tf, 45 kinda exp no?

[high lion]

you gotta respect it

[high lion]

how much should it be?

[tawdry tree]

isn’t it like $35?

[kind helm]

just wanted to read what people think

and now i am happy

[high lion]

on the mchose website its 39 for the cheapest switches

but shipping man

shit costed like 15

[kind helm]

see yall around ❤️

[high lion]

bucks

[glacial wind]

i'm not even sure what there is to hate on the v2, it literally ticks all the flaws people pointed out before

[tawdry tree]

ah icic

[sacred elm]

you literally shit on it 5 minutes ago

[high lion]

still worth it?

free shipping ali

[tawdry tree]

I don’t hate it

[glacial wind]

yeah i mean josh

[tawdry tree]

it’s just a catchup product

ah

[glacial wind]

i have no idea why he's so angry lol

[tawdry tree]

trash in his book

[high lion]

i was hoping for a numpad

smhh

[tawdry tree]

can be understandable if he expected more

[glacial wind]

it puts wooting on even playing field as far as build and such, so i'm not even sure what he was expecting

[tawdry tree]

I kinda did as well ngl

[high lion]

shit i was expecting prime lebron typa drops

but kinda left dissapointed

[tawdry tree]

something that’s innovate and pushes the scene as a whole forward, that’s it to me at least

[high lion]

wooting mouse,wooting mousepad,wooting numpad,wooting 75%,wooting 65% were kinda my bets

[glacial wind]

yeah i'm sure they'd love to do that too, but what would that change be?

[high lion]

v2 was my last expectation

[glacial wind]

i think people expecting like rapid trigger v2 or something that just isn't going to happen

those types of upgrades aren't found easily

[high lion]

atleast they made the best 4.0mm switch thats ever gonna be released

cause aint nobody makin those

[tawdry tree]

simulation multi-layout support (be it just split space) and even that would still be catching up.

[glacial wind]

i don't think that really moves the needle at all - it just cators more towards a specific keyboard demo

[tawdry tree]

well the bottle neck of the century that is wootility development is another aspect entirely.

[tawdry tree]

I disagree.

[glacial wind]

how so?

[tawdry tree]

It’s very rare in the western market and as a split space enjoyer, I understand what it can be.

[glacial wind]

yeah but again - it would be great for someone in your demographic of preferences, i'm not sure how that moves the needle for people not like you though

[tawdry tree]

and I understand that for people to try it out, they don’t want it to be a decision like the 60he v2 is.

[high lion]

did i get brainwashed by wooting

it feels like every other he keyboard will be ass

i dont even have wooting

[tawdry tree]

they’d be able to give it a try without the con of being forced into that layout if they don’t end up liking it.

[tawdry tree]

just different, not ass per se.

[glacial wind]

yeah again - that'd be neat but i don't see how that would be a major feature add for someone who isn't matching your preferences

[high lion]

aligner heads or tails

[tawdry tree]

I don’t know what to tell you if you don’t believe less people will try out split space like this honestly.

[high lion]

gotta coin flip to buy the keyboard

[tawdry tree]

head.

👀

[high lion]

welp im buying it

and i am not giving you head

[tawdry tree]

🥲

[glacial wind]

that's not what i'm saying

i'm saying even if they added this feature which would be a benefit and positive, i don't see how it's a major needle mover

we're talking about niche things that don't really matter to general population

[steel ibex]

wait what are the benefits to a split spaccebar

[tawdry tree]

more people would try it out and potentially enjoy it which can change how people play the game.

[glacial wind]

extra key basically

[tawdry tree]

with 3 spacebars instead of one.

that is a big thing to me.

[steel ibex]

why stop at 3

[tawdry tree]

[steel ibex]

higher number=better

[tawdry tree]

ortholinear enjoyer

[glacial wind]

i guess we'll agree to disagree because that seems very vague and non major to me

[tawdry tree]

you can look at HM

how many split space enjoyers that brought

woot would be that but even more so.

[high lion]

realistically how many full sized spacebars a 100% keyboard hold

considering the default switch layout

[tawdry tree]

you do the math 😭

[glacial wind]

i'm not disagreeing with your point that it's a benefit, i think there's a fundamental misunderstanding here

[high lion]

im too lazy

hold on

[tawdry tree]

👍

[high lion]

x ,m

damn yall actually stopped fucking talking

[glacial wind]

i'm still confused at what josh is even upset about

[high lion]

aight bro just

😭

[glacial wind]

maybe he's gone deep into wanting daughter board or something like that

[high lion]

what do you think about mchose sno

[glacial wind]

fine for very budget board where you don't expect more than what it is

[dark narwhal]

Does someone know if there's a place to buy HE switch sample packs?

[glacial wind]

i think the folks who buy mchose buy it because it's dirt cheap and just want a he board that won't blow up

[sacred elm]

its not even about daughterboard or anything like that, even if wooting made what he wants he would still hate lol

[glacial wind]

and that's perfectly ok

[high lion]

you are absolutely right

i just wanna get to know how it feels

maybe i could swap some switches too

[glacial wind]

i'm sure it feels fine, like every other oem that uses the same setup

[high lion]

i got some budget maybe id pick up 60 pcs of some budget he switch

[tawdry tree]

KPrepublic has some (on AliExpress or their site) and Gateron too.

[high lion]

nvm i underestimated how much do he switches cost

[tawdry tree]

If you’re from Japan, Imoshi sells new switches quite often.

[dark narwhal]

ty

[tawdry tree]

budget is like $20 (which are all pretty shit) but good ones are only around $15 more.

Almost the same price as the board itself but they do help sound quite a bit.

[high lion]

aunt gotta clutch up on the pocket money🙏

[glacial wind]

I assume he's probably just gone deep into the 'custom keyboard preference' crew and with the way he is usually it means everything that isn't that spec is trash in his eyes

[high lion]

sno ragebaiting

😭

[glacial wind]

? he's not here

[high lion]

im just joking

i really love the creativity with names

and in mechanical switches

[glacial wind]

honestly i don't mind if folks have different preference, even if they think something that doesn't meet it is 'trash' to them. Just the part where he felt the need to come to wooting just to ragebait then leave seems kind of loser behaviour

[high lion]

i think they look similiar

[sacred elm]

People are just hating to hate

[high lion]

oh these switches are fresh as hell

thats like week old

[sweet oak]

Gun maximum bullet rifle HE switch

[pastel vigil]

Is the friction fit pad compatible with the stock 60he case? Or just alumaze tofu and optimum?

[tawdry tree]

stock is too tight

[glacial wind]

Cilantro is honestly not a great name. Entire set of people won’t be able to like that switch due to missing the cilantro gene

[pastel vigil]

Damn, unfortunate but I do have a tofu so ill still get one. Thanks!

[glacial wind]

Actually thockson has been surprisingly quiet for a keyboard launch day

@fluid ravine please confirm you have secured your fathers credit card to purchase the upcoming keyboard

And maybe a Sony lens at the same time

[sacred elm]

sony lens first, 60he v2 second of course

[tawdry tree]

thcokson doesn’t care anymore

mech side

the dark side engulfed him

[sweet oak]

Hifi he

[glacial wind]

His curiosity will get him back

He can’t help himself and will eventually end up buying the v2 just to try it out. That is the thockson way

[sweet oak]

He will come back stronger

Thockier

Clackier

[glacial wind]

Sonyer

[sweet oak]

Emboldened in mech to come back with innovation to the HE realm

With sony lens in hand and a wooting in another

Ready for the modding perfection process

[tropic urchin]

@fluid ravine if you get the v2 I want your leggera

[harsh dove]

Lowkey need to sell my OG Wooting60HE

[tropic urchin]

Benum 🌹

[harsh dove]

and WootPad

[round sparrow]

i know but it's taking them a long time to release orders from beeing on hold

so they probably are waiting for all the units to compleatly sell

[fluid ravine]

We'll see
We doing split v2?

[fluid ravine]

Damn, I got caught

[sweet oak]

YOU CAN’T DROP PEAK

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

[tulip rapids]

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/hold-up-hold-up-meme-fallout-meme-gif-3737350009659669155

[sacred elm]

what is 60he+ then

small booty latina?

[tulip rapids]

her twin sister

[cyan lark]

Same 😭

[sacred elm]

No, you need 60he v2 turing

[tropic urchin]

🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭

[harsh dove]

Woot Maxxing

Oh yeah, Im trying out Last Epoch btw @tropic urchin I think you told me??? iirc

[sweet oak]

You played expedition 33 cam?

[harsh dove]

Yeah a little bit

pretty cool

[tropic urchin]

The build I ended up trying was fire af

I did a Stygian coal necro

[harsh dove]

Haha nice, yeah Im making a spellblade mage

[sweet oak]

Games music is a JAM

[tropic urchin]

That was my first one as a lil melee battle mage

[harsh dove]

Yeah I never tried mage on LE yet

[tropic urchin]

It’s fun

The spell combination one is fun but it’s like outlaw rogue on retail WoW it requires you to have ADHD

[sweet oak]

Have you gotten to the ||water area|| in expedition? The battle music in there has me grooving so hard

[harsh dove]

Flying Waters or whatever?

That place was pretty cool

[sweet oak]

Yeah there

That battle music has me breaking it down in circles fr

[tropic urchin]

I’m not sure how much you fuck with add builds but falconer usually is pretty good

haven’t tried but I haven’t been a very add heavy build guy in ARPGs, feels like cheating

[harsh dove]

That's what I played last time I played so I wanted to try sumn different, I also wanna try the Stygian Coal Lich I think it's called??

[tropic urchin]

Oooo that’s what I’m running

Shit FUCKS

[harsh dove]

Yeah that one looked fun lol

[tropic urchin]

Big thumbs up from me

My first 2 chars was spell blade mage and warlock

Lich kinda sucked on release, but looks to be in a better spot now

[night atlas]

for the FPS fellas, what gaming functionality do u see, if any, w/the split spacebar

[sacred elm]

alt f4 faster with the key between spacebars

🌹

[night atlas]

alt fr4 huh

[sacred elm]

oppsie

[polar girder]

0 for me

It’s a gimmick imo

Some people will use it tho

It’s whatever

[night atlas]

wondering if i could find some sort of utility using TFGH instead of WASD so my hand is placed where i could reach both spacebars

also sounds like a pain and a way to speedrun carpal tunnel lol

[night atlas]

i can see this

[tropic urchin]

Yeah seems very gimmicky and an eyesore more than anything

[night atlas]

i can't think of any way to make it functional for FPS games, but i'm sure someone could w/some twisted layout

[tropic urchin]

dont like non conventional looking boards

[sacred elm]

normal sane spacebar >

[polar girder]

Yeah I mean no one asked for a split spacebar lol

But all good. Just an option

[tropic urchin]

Arc did but they only did like 1/4 of the things

And aligner was weirdly excited for it before announcement

[sacred elm]

yea, its just an option so whatever

[polar girder]

Don’t have to choose it

[night atlas]

u are this close 🤏 to being one of those people who say keyboards without a numpad aren't keyboards

jokes

[tropic urchin]

Fuck numpad

I said it

[polar girder]

You’ve kind of got a point there

[tropic urchin]

I’m not at the office

No need

[night atlas]

u are so brave for saying this in a 80% and 60% majority keyboard server @tidal frigate @tropic urchin

[glacial wind]

Just another keybind depending on the game

[night atlas]

what fps game do you see it being useful for?

usually the left thumb is for just spacebar jumps for me

[glacial wind]

Like for example I’d throw one of the map or radio ping type keys onto it in valorant

[night atlas]

oh the ping one is lowkey a good idea

[glacial wind]

Yeah you basically can use it as just another key that’s easy to press

[night atlas]

are u an avid valorant guy or is it like a once in a while type thing @glacial wind

[glacial wind]

It’s my main game usually, and my friends are in the scene plus I live a few stations up from the vct stadium

But lately low on time to play so I just watch more

[night atlas]

very cool, got some friends in that scene/parallel to it as well, i'm not in it myself though.

I assume ur in LA or something?

[glacial wind]

Nah Korea

[night atlas]

ayyy lets go

couple friends and i are going to toronto for a bday and tried to get tix to the VCT event there, but the goddamn bots and shit beat us all to it lol. figured that'd happen but it still was a shitty feeling

we're gonna touch grass instead and see niagra falls lmao

are you working within the e-sports industry? hope u don't mind these questinos i'm just geuinely curious

[glacial wind]

Nah I just happen to be ex content creator so made local friends with folks who happened to be viewers and worked in esports

Just weird coincidence that some of them lived in same area as me

[tidal frigate]

Saying what

[night atlas]

that's sick, i was actually in a similar boat. i'm in SoCal and became friends w/some content creators cause of my profession at the time @glacial wind

[night atlas]

saying "fuck numpad!"

i'm also just messin around

[tidal frigate]

I didnt say that

[night atlas]

oh wait totally tagged the wrong dude LMFAO

my bad

[tropic urchin]

you're looking for me

what the fuck

💀

Idk what I was expecting but it was not that

[rigid burrow]

for those who have owl lab ti switches, how did you guys lube them

[stray tiger]

Factory lube is quite great. Otherwise just like you would any other HE switch

[rigid burrow]

would the old guide from wooting be okay

[stray tiger]

Yes sir

[glossy pagoda]

[fluid ravine]

Gyat

It's thicc

[fluid ravine]

Reall

[glossy pagoda]

I agree, but part of the reason we didn't just drop it on the world out of nowhere is so that people who bought the 60he+ don't feel like crap for doing it. Plenty of time to know what's coming

[sacred elm]

Understandable

[tulip rapids]

fr i got my 60he+ in fall 2024

[harsh dove]

It's okay, when 60HEv3 drops, people will feel like crap

[tulip rapids]

but now i can get two 60hes🫦

[glossy pagoda]

Same goes for the big resellers who do us a service by getting Wooting products to places we don't serve effectively. It would be a dick move for them to buy thousands and then we make their product less valuable before they can sell the inventory

[sacred elm]

Mark, when can we see 60he v2 case pictures?

[glossy pagoda]

Computex content probably

[sacred elm]

👀 alright

Also what will happen with 60he+ after v2 ? will v2 just replace it ?

[ionic breach]

^ also to add on if u know anything abt it

no more plastic cases?

[glossy pagoda]

We haven't really decided that, we'll let the market tell us

Heh same answer to both questions

[tulip rapids]

what if hear me out

i post more pictures of my floofy cats. Can i get invited to computex?

im just a young alien monkey with a dream

[glossy pagoda]

Yes

That's not your cat

[tidal frigate]

You can enter computex as customer on last day

[tulip rapids]

you replied so fast my message was uploaded late

[harsh dove]

I don't not have not Tikkens

[sacred elm]

[tulip rapids]

blink if youre okay

they cant hurt you anymore

[glossy pagoda]

Cat pictures are top priority

[tidal frigate]

Mark do i have 30d return policy on ow60?

[glossy pagoda]

Yes

[tidal frigate]

Well

Tikkens already sound good

If there is livestream on computex why not soundtest live on ow60

[glossy pagoda]

Because sound tests are extremely difficult to do correctly

Doing it at an event is worthless

For digital release anyway. In person it would be valid

[tidal frigate]

Well

[cyan lark]

Very off topic, but the next generation of jailbreakers really are something. Check out the note. (New Orleans prison break)

[glossy pagoda]

*too

[tidal frigate]

Americans now build prisons out of paper?

[tropic urchin]

“To easy lol”

[little glen]

That is one of the 2 building materials they have (the other is extra flammable wood beams)

[glossy pagoda]

Who dat

[fluid ravine]

Smh

[solar tundra]

nah bro but a goon screen is crazy icl

[tropic urchin]

Send finalboy a DM maybe he can hook you up

Thocky 🔥

[steel ibex]

all materials in the greatest country in the world are unbulletproof

[storm axle]

do you think i can get away with adding the num row along with the alphas? or would that make it too close?

my current num row feels too hollow for me

[hardy olive]

Does anyone know if it is possible for me to put the ISO space bar that has the symbol (•••) in the ANSI layout?

[kindred lagoon]

What do you guys make of this switch?

[glacial wind]

Is that the updated version?

I’m not sure anyone here has tried the updated one

[light agate]

does anyone know if the hibi june60 could work with a wooting module?

https://hibi.mx/collections/june/products/june

[glacial wind]

I believe we’ve had a few folks use that case before yeah

[light agate]

ooh, okay, i'll definitely add this to my list

[glacial wind]

If you search hibi June here you’ll probably find some photos of wootings inside hibi June

[light agate]

will do, thank you!

[lyric nimbus]

would this fit on my wooting two

[uneven cradle]

Looks like it

[chilly mural]

I wonder what's his reaction now with wooting Knob being teased

[pallid rapids]

is the knob really a benefit or more of preference tho?

[chilly mural]

Could be nice for productivity.

Don't really understand what's behind the mind of people that wants knob

[languid kestrel]

controlling volume I guess

[cyan iron]

any1 has bought keycaps from https://www.thekapco.com/collections/kapco-artist ?

they look sick

[pastel vigil]

Its been teased for like a year

[chilly mural]

But never this blatant, like a whole page dedicated to it

[languid kestrel]

never heard of this company and the prices are extremely cheap

I wouldn't personally hold my breath on the caps being super good but probably fine for the money

[cyan iron]

looks pretty cool https://www.reddit.com/r/WootingKB/comments/1jsnzi6/color_shifting_painted_80he_with_black_zinc_case/#lightbox

quality seems good

[languid kestrel]

get em if you like em

[cyan iron]

def!

[steel ibex]

Volume control ngl

Since most headphones that have button that change in weird increments

And pressing two tiny buttons is too inconvenient

[languid kestrel]

i dunno I just do it on the keyboard, but if I had a knob I'd certainly use the knob

not a dealbreaker anyway

buttons on headphones is a mad idea

[uneven cradle]

knob is a cool optional add on for those interested and that it can be placed anywhere and programmable even cooler

and it works on all arm based wooting keyboards

[sacred elm]

thats up to you, but i would do alphas only

[chilly mural]

Imagine you spin the knob and it changes to certain FN layer and keep it like that. It'll be cool

[languid kestrel]

man that's about the worst way to use it 💀

that's just a button then

Finalmouse (@finalmouse) on X

The keyboard enthusiasts have been asking for more sound test videos next to other HE boards!

Mind you this audio is from an iPhone which doesn’t pickup a lot of bass notes so it doesn’t do either keyboard justice. But here’s the centerpiece pro next to a “Drunkdeer” HE board

X · May 17, 2025, 2:11 AM

why are they comparing their 350$ keyboard with a drunkdeer?

[glacial wind]

sounds very muffly gen 1 he type sound

[marsh saffron]

as if drunkdeer isnt garbage 😭

compare your 350$ keyboard to a modded wooting ffs

[sacred elm]

sounds like lekker v1s

like for real

[marsh saffron]

the worst part is all the finalboy dick suckers are gonna be glazing the thock so hard

[sacred elm]

also you cant mod it, swap switches etc. the product is absolute joke

[marsh saffron]

completely proprietary switches

[glacial wind]

have they announced updates on their delivery yet? Because it was supposed to be mid this year which isn't far away now

[marsh saffron]

nope^

[chilly mural]

This sounds like cheap Chinese Arcade Button

[glacial wind]

i saw someone post the other day that this is year 3 of waiting for finalmouse keyboard which is insane that it's true lol

[sacred elm]

also that interactive screen is so bad, youll need to look at it directly from the top otherwise the video/gif whatever will look like shit

why would you even make that

[glacial wind]

remember back when 80he was being launched people were saying centerpiece might come out before it

[marsh saffron]

ironically im pretty sure its longer

[sacred elm]

lol

[glacial wind]

we might literally end up in a situation where wooting releases 2 boards before it comes out

[marsh saffron]

iirc they first announced centerpiece in like 2019 no?

[sacred elm]

yes

this is centerpiece pro

[marsh saffron]

yeah they redid it entirely

[sacred elm]

they released pro version before base version

oh not even released

[marsh saffron]

and the pro isnt even released 💀

[sacred elm]

sorry

[marsh saffron]

its been 6 years

and nobody but finalcuck has one

[fringe quarry]

☝️ 🤓

[marsh saffron]

@sacred elm my raiden finally moved

[chilly mural]

cheap phone + keyboard for $350

[marsh saffron]

yeah you get a cheap screen in your keyboard with proprietary switches for 350 usd

and its gonna be extremely limited stock

typical finalmouse

[sacred elm]

60hev2 clears

[fringe quarry]

price lowkey not that bad

[marsh saffron]

yeah but you literally cant mod it at all 🤷

spring swap + hand lube at most

[fringe quarry]

and

[sacred elm]

you can hear how scratchy they are

lekker v1 ahh switches

[marsh saffron]

it sounds like shit

[chilly mural]

Have some customizability (switches, case, mounting, keycaps, LED, plate, foam...) While the Centerpiece got... Screen?

[marsh saffron]

the drunkdeer almost sounds better 😭

💀

[sacred elm]

Yes screen, gpu and cpu☝️ 🤓

[marsh saffron]

these people are brainwashed

[calm pulsar]

shame that the new board still has friciton mount and no ability to install in leggera and similar cases though

[sacred elm]

cant you install it in leggera with a friction fit?

[fringe quarry]

the vid sound is "interesting"

[chilly mural]

I feel like most people would just install it to replace their old wooting PCB

So I imagine wooting plastic case, alumaze, and alike

[marsh saffron]

thats what im gonna do w my tofu build

[calm pulsar]

tray mount leggera maybe but I dunno if friction thing will work in there

[chilly mural]

Needs to be updated

[sacred elm]

I think they need to record comparison video

like 60he+ stock vs 60he v2

[fringe quarry]

hope i get my venom leggera build to sound good some day

[sacred elm]

getting new silver case so im fine🌹

I think its gmk time for me finally

gonna put it on v2

but dont know which set

[chilly mural]

Oooo yeah!!!

[fluid ravine]

Ez

[fringe quarry]

howw

[fluid ravine]

What's your build rn

[fringe quarry]

leggera g + venom60 + aluplate + owlab tis + gmk wob

[fluid ravine]

What's wrong with it manee

[fringe quarry]

loud af and spacebar makes the whole case resonate or sum

[marsh saffron]

Swap off alu and throw some foam in if you don't already have it?

[fluid ravine]

Change plate material, prob go for fr4 or PP, I prob go firmer oring like 50a or 70a, less resonance if you're running no case foam. Alu has a more resonance but yet moderate sound to it.

[marsh saffron]

Should quiet it down

[fringe quarry]

i got the fr4 plate but its ugly

not sure where to find other materials

[fluid ravine]

Custom

But you should try a firmer oring, it should help

[paper bloom]

Atp we might as well shock foam

And spray it on our case

[fluid ravine]

Lmao

[paper bloom]

Or those phone case shock absorbers

[fringe quarry]

and not using the geon foam cuz it pushes the whole thing up

[paper bloom]

I mean wld u also n protecting ur

Keeb too

[fringe quarry]

any idea where to find those

[paper bloom]

[fluid ravine]

Poly fill goated, takes out case resonance

[fluid ravine]

Located?

What region u in

[fringe quarry]

oh ye already using a bit of that

[fluid ravine]

It's easier to get orings na

[fringe quarry]

EU

[fluid ravine]

But idk abt others

Hmmm

[paper bloom]

@fluid ravine yo i got a new idea

EVA foam

[fluid ravine]

Anyone know any eu vendors that sells orings xd

[fringe quarry]

i know geon sells them on the china store but that shit too expensive to import

[paper bloom]

Amazom might work

Amazon*

[fluid ravine]

How about me wearing iems with foam tip

Yur

[paper bloom]

Yo thats a good idea

Hella isolation

[fluid ravine]

Yeah I worry abt shipping and shi

[fringe quarry]

i ordered some like plate and pcb gasket pads things tho

[fluid ravine]

Cus like in NA we get ours from cannon keys and grave shift

[fringe quarry]

maybe they help

[fluid ravine]

[fringe quarry]

🤔

https://keebmat.com/products/thockfilm#

[fluid ravine]

Ugly how chet

[sacred elm]

they can mess with accuracy

[fringe quarry]

the gold accents

[fluid ravine]

Oh (°o°:)

[fluid ravine]

But-

[fringe quarry]

pmo

so reflective

i wanna see darkness

[fluid ravine]

Ok sound wise how was it

[fringe quarry]

everything bit more toned down

or i use sharpie on all gold accents

[fluid ravine]

And did you like it or not

[fringe quarry]

i think i preferred the sound ye

[fluid ravine]

Ok then..

I'm sorry but the reason of not using the plate cus of the gold caught me off guard

[fringe quarry]

will see

[fringe quarry]

i want perfection

[fluid ravine]

Heh, not until them key caps shine

Finna be reflective as them gold accents

[fringe quarry]

lowkey would like glossy keycap

[fluid ravine]

Let the gold make it shine brighter!

[fringe quarry]

nooo

[fluid ravine]

Brighter than Calders head

Smooth and shiny

No lumps

All things just falls right past it

Oooooo

[fringe quarry]

cant be combining gold and silver

[fluid ravine]

[fringe quarry]

how many shiny emojis do you have 😭

[fluid ravine]

Yes

[fringe quarry]

also keebmat probably helps

my desk makes keyboard louder somehow

[fluid ravine]

Oh shi I forgot I use bumpons on my leggera

I don't use stock feets lol

[fringe quarry]

what they look like

[fringe quarry]

they small af

[fluid ravine]

Makes it sound diff

[fluid ravine]

Yeah

I have a glass desk so using these bumpons makes the board resonate less than the stock feet.

It adds a bit of bass punch on the bottom out for me.

On my glass desk ofc. If it's on keebmat, then it's just bright

It's like the sound profile of the board isolates itself without the reverb traveling through the platform

[fringe quarry]

interesting

i wonder how keebmat without feet will sound

[fluid ravine]

But then there's my neo65, it's feet is like a low profile, sorts like leggeras, prob a bit shorter. On my desk it sounds louder than on keebmat

So really it basically the feet changing the reverb

[fringe quarry]

damn

where good silent switches

[fluid ravine]

Ew

[fringe quarry]

haterr

[fluid ravine]

Tf are those

Where good clicky switches

[fringe quarry]

imma put holes in the owlabs

[fluid ravine]

[fringe quarry]

🤔

[fluid ravine]

Yo-

Bro trying to make his own goals

If there's a hole there's a goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

https://tenor.com/view/sports-goal-gif-26197391

[fluid ravine]

Ok fr tho how u gonna do that

I'm curious

[fringe quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-spinning-drill-happy-birthday-gif-5926060614463117561

[kindred lagoon]

Honestly? Raeds are the way to go imo.

[kindred lagoon]

Well I've only seen Outemu make a clicky HE switch but for mechanical Arctic Foxes are great

[languid kestrel]

if they weren't so expensive, they are like 80 euro cents a switch

[warped cradle]

what is the difference between the 60he and 60he+?

[languid kestrel]

screw in stabs basically

[warped cradle]

oh alright thx

[glossy pagoda]

I bought capybara keycaps

I'll share a picture later

[sacred elm]

[glossy pagoda]

And a new strap for my 60he

[round sparrow]

mark the owlabs cases are on hold till next week right?

[bronze grove]

The 60He+ uses the same PCB as the 60HE module.
It essentially means you CAN install screw-in stabs if you want, but it does not come with it.

[glossy pagoda]

Yea, for humans to review things

We already found one person who posted on social media that they purchased solely to resell at a premium, and we nuked their order

[sacred elm]

when can we preorder 60he v2 mark

[glossy pagoda]

Eventually

[sacred elm]

sounds good

[round sparrow]

BRUH

[chilly mural]

LMAO

Soo Dumb, at least could've waited

[round sparrow]

it's beeing sold for 900 € on ali

wtf

[glacial wind]

that listing is pretty sketchy. The guys reviews for recent ones have a lot of just 'invoice scam' type 1 star reviews so he may just list things at crazy prices then try to find locally and or scam people buying

[glossy pagoda]

Sno I found an amazing store

[round sparrow]

i dont plan on selling mine anyways

im just glad i waited and didnt purchase a 60he+

[glacial wind]

look at all those enlightened gentlemen

[little glen]

i think shafie might be interested as well

[sacred elm]

im standing right there

[glacial wind]

nice ponytail shafie

[little glen]

are you the ponytail or the guy with short hair and glasses

[sacred elm]

Secret

[chilly mural]

Maybe he's a female???

[calm pulsar]

its been there for several months at that price, multiple vendors

[round sparrow]

last time i checked it was 850

[sacred elm]

affordable

[calm pulsar]

even centerpiece is better than this

[chilly mural]

Owlab at least exist

[tawdry tree]

from china is like €440 with shipping and tax included

@glacial wind you arguing with mana, I can’t

how the turns have tabled

2.5u keycaps 😭😭

[round sparrow]

damn that's almost what i've payed

[chilly mural]

And I thought you're being too much for wanting the spacebar position to be flipped

[tawdry tree]

yeah, china’s resale prices don’t seem to be that crazy

may change overtime ofc

[tawdry tree]

😂😂

[glacial wind]

i still don't understand what the issue trying to be solved with 2.5u is

[tawdry tree]

are you ready?

[sacred elm]

I know the answer but ill get muted

[tawdry tree]

[glacial wind]

that does seem worth wooting destroying all keycap compatibility and investing $100k into custom molds and keycaps

[languid kestrel]

yes but nobody cares about custom keycaps except you, trust

[sacred elm]

at least 90% dont care

truss

[languid kestrel]

but everybody totally cares about this imagined symmetry

[tawdry tree]

nah, I’m not even sure why many brought up 2.5u, just the conventional 2.25 - 1.25 - 2.75 split that resolves it (mostly).

[languid kestrel]

even that is not any better by any stretch of imagination

[tawdry tree]

2.5u is technically more balanced between the two but throwing away keycap compatibility for that isn’t worth it.

[calm pulsar]

still no split bs, right shift, symmetrical bottom row🐸

[tawdry tree]

significantly better but it’s probably weird to imagine if you don’t use split space actively

it’s such a small difference but it is a big one.

[tawdry tree]

🥲

[languid kestrel]

which way the caps are is of no consequence

[little glen]

my main problem with the layout is that more stuff isnt split

[languid kestrel]

just get used to it in 5 seconds ez

[little glen]

give me split space split backspace split shift

fuck it split enter

[tawdry tree]

the alignment, one have no room for your right thumb while the other does. it offers both thumbs some room.

[languid kestrel]

just move thumb

or buy smaller thumb

[tawdry tree]

it forces your thumb to be under your index essentially, it’s not that bad but not comfortable.

[calm pulsar]

imagine if the extra function key here was right on the 6.25u spacebar slot

lol

[tawdry tree]

Wooting 60HE v2 The Split imaginee

[languid kestrel]

if that's the argument then what about the main demographic -- gamers -- who would use wasd and space

you want to accommodate those people better with a wider space on the left side so they have a more natural position for the thumb

[median fog]

do the 2.5 too

[tawdry tree]

it’s even better for that. when on WASD, your hand shifts to the left by 1U, even with 2.25u the middle button requires a slight reach. With 2.75u, it’s too much.

[languid kestrel]

when on wasd it would be unnatural for me to move my thumb that much to the right

I mean left

what do you make of that

[tawdry tree]

2.5 is not gonna be it mana, you can try it in keyboardlayouteditor.

[tawdry tree]

have you used split space?

[median fog]

it can easily be it though. there is many more benefits than drawbacks.

[languid kestrel]

no, but I can just use the shift keys to visualize where they would be

[kindred lagoon]

[tawdry tree]

the tradeoff with most split space are that you can’t press near the center, it has to be the edges of the bar already. 2.75 split is unbalanced, offering no room to the right thumb and too much (not for you perhaps) for the left. This isn’t the case with the 2.25 split.

That’s why one is more common and the other is never seen before.

[glacial wind]

i feel the word 'easily' does not mean what mana thinks it means

[tawdry tree]

finding sets for 2.5u is borderline impossible

very few would want to sacrifice that for the split

[glacial wind]

it's literally impossible, i tried for 30 mins

i couldn't find a single 2.5u set

the 2.5u ones i found were typos where it was 2.25u lol

[median fog]

again, this is not some priority at all, you're being mislead by this bubble of a server, and in general, 90%+ of customer base doesn't care about this + wooting would provide additional choices.

[languid kestrel]

yes but trust, this data is based on my feelings and opinion alone, nobody wants custom keycaps

[glacial wind]

i feel like mana just artificially says his problem is huge and the problem he created with his solution isn't huge

[kindred lagoon]

You know, DMK HX20 aren't a bad look on the black Wooting either

[tawdry tree]

you know the sayodevice 66, that has a 2.5u split and got so much hate for it because all people could use were 2.25u keycaps which looked ugly.

[median fog]

you flipped things on its head (because you think this bubble is bigger than it is). the keycap compatibility is 1 thing, while there is like 5 different other things that are not only more reason to do the other way, but more important reasons.

[tawdry tree]

honestly, even if the majorly of people wanted this, it’d still be crossing woot’s rule so even then I doubt it’d happen.

[glacial wind]

yeah. he keeps saying it's a bubble but there's nothing behind it besides "I think it's so and therefore it's so"

[tawdry tree]

the balance 2.5u offers over 2.25u is very little mana, not worth sacrificing keycap compatibility over.

[languid kestrel]

I really want to see an alternate universe where manabanker can realize his harebrained ideas

[glacial wind]

his 5 others things is also like a college student who has 1-2 things but was told he needed 5 things in his list

[median fog]

but it's not how any person should operate - don't blindly walk the party line - cast YOUR OWN VOTE always, stop thinking in silly ways like this - this is literally you contributing to the false consensus.

[glacial wind]

it's like 1-2 you can maybe understand but then he goes into things like "sound" and "click feel" where it's just randomly added in there

[chilly mural]

I looked through ILUMKB non GMK keycaps in stock and also can't find it

[glacial wind]

yeah they literally don't exist and his solution is kind of insane business wise. It'd be for wooting to literally become the only solution for 2.5u keycaps and fix the problem they caused by suddenly making a whole bunch of keycaps set

[chilly mural]

Why kill Goodwill over Asthetic

At least with 80he it's compatible with all MX keycaps and there's like no standard for TKL

[calm pulsar]

so he's asking for rare key sizes, meanwhile wooting can't do 7u and split bs that are in every set

[median fog]

this is not how democracy etc works lmao "I think many people think that other way, so it's not gonna be possible, i'm not even gonna cast my vote for this" COME ON.

[glacial wind]

the outrage you would cause by causing complete 100% keycap incompatibility would be so many times bigger than any benefits from making a 2.25u key 2.5u

[tawdry tree]

🥲

[median fog]

it's how herd mentality works

[glacial wind]

it's not even rare, it doesn't even exist

[uneven cradle]

There was a big enough outrage over the 80he not being TKL I think this would somehow be worse

[tidal frigate]

You have to buy extras to use split spacebars

[glacial wind]

like the only sets you can find is maybe some random keyboard brand made a 2.5u board that didn't sell and you harvest the keycaps from that lol

[tawdry tree]

I cast my own vote for 2.25 mana, as that offers the perfect balance between usability and compatibility in my opinion.

[median fog]

you can cast 2 votes also btw

rank choice voting

[tawdry tree]

wrong reply.

[chilly mural]

That's soo expensive and painful

[tawdry tree]

but I don’t want 2.5 and I don’t think most would want that.

[little glen]

I think wooting should come up with their own keycap standard to accomodate unreasonable demands from people that dont know what they are talking about

That would be a good thing actually

[tawdry tree]

That’s why 2.25 split is so much more common.

[glacial wind]

if you put a poll up online the 2.25/2.75u solution would win in a poll vs 2.5u by such an absurd margin

[calm pulsar]

and that is shitty on its own

[glacial wind]

even just a general public poll there's not a chance the 2.5u solution would win

[calm pulsar]

too bad wooting is a company of like 3 people who don't have industrial designers and can't put a couple of extra sensors on the pcb

[median fog]

and I don’t think most would want that.
WHY ARE YOU EVEN MENTIONING THIS? you have no idea about this at all - this server is an extreme bubble. 90%+ of customers that buy wooting don't care about this.
it's ridiculous to talk on behalf of others, especially when you're in an extreme bubble here.

[tawdry tree]

holy 🔥🔥

[glacial wind]

90% of statistics are made up

[tidal frigate]

60he numpad with knobs

[languid kestrel]

mb has just consistently had the most insane ideas, somehow convincing himself that the odd thing he thought of is reality

[glacial wind]

i feel like he just polled himself and decided he represents the average customer lol

[sacred elm]

From where is that number coming

FROM YOUR HEAD

[tawdry tree]

Sayo got a lot of hate for that split and I know people value keycap customizability.

[languid kestrel]

when they said "believe in yourself" it doesn't mean that every idea you have is good

[tidal frigate]

Who you are talking about

[chilly mural]

I need source and statistic.

[little glen]

Source? 🤓
I made it the fuck up.

[chilly mural]

It's like at least 5-10 people here doesn't want it, so that's enough for me to think that your suggestion is kinda dumb.

[sacred elm]

People swap keycaps to make the keyboard look better, even if its cheap keycap set. What do you mean 90%

[little glen]

Thats a cute set

[chilly mural]

I don't see 2.5u cap here

[languid kestrel]

yeah but 90% of users don't care about that, trust

[median fog]

it's the same concept as being fed an algorithm on twitter, and being swayed by it (often unconsciously).
you're living in a false reality.

[little glen]

I think all wooting boards should ship with stepped caps from now on

[glacial wind]

the irony of the statement is he himself is trying to talk on behalf of everyone else

[sacred elm]

I think you need to get off twitter

[little glen]

90% of customers would appreciate it

[glacial wind]

i'm not sure why 1 manabank would better represent the people than literally everyone else in the keyboard space

[tidal frigate]

I never had issue with my algorytm because i know what is true and which is rage bait troll and fake stuff

[chilly mural]

At this point, I need him to gather like 10000 woot customer's signature before he can yap about wanting 2.50 and how everybody doesn't care about it.

[glossy pagoda]

And new strap for my 60he

[chilly mural]

Naisu

[little glen]

Thats so nice

I want to get a keychain like that tbh but too lazy

[glacial wind]

won't you need 2 for the v2

[tidal frigate]

@glossy pagoda time to buy ow60 ends on monday right?

[little glen]

Still dont have a strap for my gt-80

[tawdry tree]

buy it

[glossy pagoda]

I've got options

[chilly mural]

DAMN

Strap leak

[glacial wind]

where is the wooting luggage strap though, that's the one thing i actually want

[chilly mural]

dem

huh, there's a keychain optiojn

[chilly mural]

AAOLKUJ:HGJASFLKJHAS

[glacial wind]

that is what we need

[chilly mural]

I didn't know you can buy that

You can't

hopefully

awww

sad

[median fog]

it's crazy - there is already 2 PCBs, and people in this bubble still demand some complete keycap compatibility - you have full compatibility already with the normal PCB - can Wooting make ONE UNCONVENTIONAL KB, THAT ONLY HAS SPACEBAR UNCONVENTIONAL ? what is this unhealthy obsession with compatibility - when it causes so many other more important problems. it's some mass-psychosis at this point.

[languid kestrel]

there's 0 problems

absolutely 0 real-world problems

They should make a post in #1141096226884956181 instead of screaming into the void

[chilly mural]

80he and uwu is unconventional enough, and 60hev2 with double strap is certainly weird. But 60hev2 is actually weird on its spacebar just a little bit by not following what's commonly followed.mmm

I think you need to touch grass.

given manabanker's previous posts in #1141096226884956181 I don't think anyone here comes out the same person after reading them

[glacial wind]

this feels like one of those 'everyone but me is insane'

It should be tripple strap with vertical strap

Anyone used typeplus yikb stabz which washer do u use square or round

Never mind think it's flat by the stab and round by the screw

[sacred elm]

Do you even need them?

arent they for thinner 1.2mm pcbs?

[round sparrow]

I'm not buying the split version anyway but I have way more invested in keycaps than I do boards and Id never touch a board that didn't use standard caps. Someone selling a board like that would be financial suicide in the hobby.

[median fog]

I'm not buying it because it's not aligned better (mostly because it will be annoying to use for typing), and also would be nicer if both spacebars where symmetrical. and normal 60he upgrade is not worth it if you already have old 60he.

yeah honestly all variations of split spacebar are just worse than solid spacebar - they should instead have added two 1.25u keys on both sides (becoming Alt and Alt Gr), and made spacebar 4.0u (also with OS key becoming 1.0u).

[sacred elm]

@stray tiger Have you tried 60he v2 with friction fit pad in leggera T?

[stray tiger]

Nope but if someone has the optimum case still they can try

I think @harsh dove does

[sacred elm]

I really like leggera but not sure if it will work fine with friction pad, will i need grounding pads or anything

[ripe void]

Dunno but the thin ones are good on the front where the stabs contact the pcb feel sturdy the back ones can go I ent peeling the plastic of the back of the pcb

[stray tiger]

I can't tell you that you won't. I can only tell you that the need for them is rare. Some believe it's better safe than sorry.

[sacred elm]

Alright thanks🌹

[stray tiger]

None of mine are grounded but I'm missing a few tools in the toolbox

[sacred elm]

Ill probably still get v2 case and wont bother with leggera

[mental salmon]

@stray tiger, thanks for the TIs recommendation! I like the sound out of the box better than the Wooting POMs (I never lubed them), and fatigue is gone! I can wait for the new Lekkers now

[chilly mural]

Tee hee

[trail bane]

I’m stick the right one under spacebar stabs

[trail bane]

They’re way better than stock 80he pads

[wide turtle]

Hello guys. Which is better? OWlabs Ti or Gateron Jade Ruby for the sounds? I currently use geonworks raw he. I want a more louder and cleaner pop sound

[sacred elm]

owlabs are louder
