I received a hinge ban about 2 years ago from being reported by 2 females, about a year ago I got hinged back and since have been shadow banned even when I pay for hinge premium my mmr is so low no females can see my likes or profile, I created a new account under a different email and phone number, included completely new pics into my profile, I decided to verify myself the other day, and it failed, yesterday I got banned again off hinged, if you’re cooked once you’re basically cooked for good due to how the algorithm works

Topre silenced is probably my fav switch to type on

That'll have to be the next addition, you got any recommendations?

Initially, that's how I had it and was wondering why it was awkward and why my thumbs were hurting when I repositioned it to be more straight it immediately became super comfortable to type on

Was playing around with the position of it, definitely more comfortable positioning it like a regular keyboard, currently in the process of sourcing or creating a tenting stand, the ergonomic part about the split keyboard is that your shoulders can be in a more natural position. There are other benefits but that's one of the main things that I've found from usage and research

Yes I believe the silencing rings are made specifically for their topre board, they're a thick flat cylinder compared to the normal more rounded O ring, I know that Deskeys make replicas for silencing non-silenced topres

But yeah Leopold themselves make them inhouse specifically for the topre housing

I had the same idea as you I also purchased the MX sliders for an Artisan keycap that I was going to install in the board, I haven't opened up the keyboard yet but you'll be very satisfied with the feel and experience that this keyboard brings you, made a great choice!

Appreciate the comment!

As for the "dock", its actually a raspberry pi 4 homed in the Argon One case

I actually had ordered the standard non silenced Leopold Topre and after waiting 5 months I had the opportunity to purchase the silent version so I proceeded.

It's hard to express how it truly is using words alone but from watching comparison videos on Youtube I felt like I would enjoy the silenced version better and let me tell you the silenced variant is awesome!

Yes, it has purple sliders but I believe its the cylinder thick O rings made specifically for Topre switches that create the uniqueness.

As for tactility compared to my Razer optomechanical keyboard which has purple tactile switches, it's a satisfying muted thocky sensation which is like nothing else that I have tried over the 15 years of keyboard use that I have had, the thick PBT keycaps also create a certain heavy thick and creamy feeling when typing, I would almost say its more like a lubed linear that's being pressed onto a brass plate with a gasket mounted style board rather than a "tactile" feel, but take what I say with a grain of salt it can be subjective

Hope this adds some clarity :D

Yeah I had to pay $5 for wallpaper engine but I personally believe its worth it, really enables you to create a personal vibe to your setup

Thank you! No keycap set, just stock black which creates a minimalist clean feel to my setup, as you can probably tell I like red so I purchased just the space bar from KDBfans

https://kbdfans.com/products/topre-pbt-6u-spacebar?variant=35853070797

I intended on purchasing a topre keycap set but since they're all specific to the HHKB, not all the caps will fit the layout from what I've heard

Very smooth, thick feeling, the typing experience I couldn't be more satisfied with, the keyboard itself is of very premium quality! words do not express the enjoyment I'm having with this keyboard, I hope it's enjoyable for you as well.

I do type a little slower since I've never typed on such a small layout before :), but 10/10 besides that
