Yeah I'm curious about this, I've been using laptops for so long that have low profile and nonexistent ergonomics so I'm curious how adjusting between more standard profiles and XDA would be. I just love the look of XDA though.

very nice! I like the black plate with this keycap set. My brother also had these keycaps on a QMMK pro and I really liked how they felt together.

yeah it's definitely slower and more prone to typos, but considering I don't need to type for my job and it's only something I do in my spare time, it's a trade off I don't mind, especially if it's not permanent. As far as other tasks like opening cans, I usually use a spoon or other tool but my nails are pretty strong with gel manicure so sometimes I can get away with it. I love switching up my nails so I go back and forth between long and short, I'm sure once i finish building my keyboard i'll probably cut them short so i can enjoy the typing experience.

my only thought with the fingerprint location is that anyone with longer fingernails might have a hard time fitting in that area. It's still the only spot that seems to fit with the more compact layout, and I guess most people using keyboards regularly probably don't have long nails like I tend to have.
