It's anodized, so it really depends on the lighting too.

It's definitely a green-gray.

Honest question: why did you put the accent where it can’t be seen? What’s the point?
So confusing after your excellent accents on the Sixty-five and the Sonnet, which were so good I bought extra accents for both.

I mean, I don’t think those factors are the source of the problems we have with social media.

I’m happy to not be on Twitter too, but Mastodon isn’t likely to be the next big thing due to the issues I called out and just overall user experience friction. The “next big thing” is probably going to be easy to use, easy to understand, and they will understand that their main product is great moderation.

I went through the trouble of making an account, but have only used it on the web. As compared to Twitter, the process of finding and following people who aren't on my home server isn't as simple, which I find frustrating. Long term, I have massive concerns around operating costs and moderation. The platform (i.e. NOT a platform, but just "some guys" running an instance) seems susceptible to moneyed interests having an outsize influence on moderation decisions.

Reply to Any thoughts on layout idea? by ForsakenWebNinja
Just want to throw this out there - the standard navigation column on the 65% layout is 4 keys top to bottom. Maybe I'm alone on this, but I actually use all of those nav column keys.
Nothing personal, but I hate that so many KB designs just willy nilly drop 1 or more of those keys. I mean, I see that you have a fingerprint reader, but there are, not exaggerating, 20 other keys on this layout that I'd rather see dropped first to fit in a fingerprint reader, logo, badge, etc. There are so many boards I've passed on because they prioritize other stuff over the basic functionality of having a complete layout. Yeah, it's just one key, but that's a key I use daily.

100% agreed on this. Drop has been a consistent source of in-stock high quality keycaps for a long time now.

I've had to use electrical tape on several Ramas. Easy and worth it compared to asking for a replacement that might be just as bad.

I think MT3 is underrated. These BOGO sales are always welcome.

I don't want to call out specific designers or vendors, but there are absolutely people making money hand over fist in this hobby, especially off of group buys.
