just to chime in on alternative keyboard layouts:

I’m german and can’t recommend the neo2 family of layouts enough.
I currently am using the “noted” layout and it feels absolutely amazing.

The different layer approach makes it easy to write all the symbols for programming I need, or if you are a writer, all the »correct« „quotation“ marks.
there’s even support for all the greek letters used in math equations: ℤℵ×∀ℂΣ∫∃∇ℕℝ∂ΛΦΨ

You can learn more about the layout here (site is in german):

Don’t forget about MASTER BOOT RECORD: https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/artist/77s5NAGQbxu8oLstaqSwHE?si=KbpLraHBSpWkg56kVhMEFA

I personally love the feel of the MoYu RS3M MagLev. And I think it was like 15 bucks.

And don’t be afraid to go to chinese distributors like ziicube.com Saves a lot of money by going directly to the source and buying in bulk if you can, to alleviate shipping cost.

It’s just Chromium in disguise anyway.
