Dipping my toe...

As someone who's looking to to get into the hobby, I'm curious to hear if there are any recommendations for budget friendly mechanical keyboards. I had/have a Corsair cherry red mechanical keyboard that I used probably around 10 years ago at this point when I was into gaming, but now I'd be looking for something a bit more refined, and possibly vintage as I quite enjoy using old tech. Any suggestions? I'm in Europe if that matters at all.

  • If you want to dip a whole foot you could buy a hot swappable PCB and case to experiment with switches and keycaps. It's probably not cheaper than a Keychron, but it could be give you more options to explore. I've built two Nyquist's from keebio and a handwired Alice: each has cost less than $100. My first Nyquist is still the cheapest of the three and my daily driver; it replaced a Gigabyte with Cherry reds...
