I've been running mobian- which some may feel is 'lacking' in features, but that's more of a residual debian thing. Mobian comes with gnome software installed but you can use the terminal to install other stuff and add repos to your update list.

Mobian is pretty well-connected imo. I'd do plan on implementing my own fixes/patches until upstream catches up. If that's not for you, then you might be inclined to try another distro. Again, you do have a terminal with sudo privileges- so you can install other packages on top of it.

@AmpBenzScientist I must be illiterate because I never knew this to be the case and cannot find a source to this...

How can a statement be inquisitive? I believe interrogations can be, but not statements...iirc interrogative statements are used as tools/tricks to get the subject to surrender information without being directly asked for it.

I'd say mms is the only notable issue I've had so far- but even then there's a script to run to get it to work- but hasn't been upstreamed yet and I haven't gotten around to try it.

@2ck @izaya
Got questions about it?

having a wrist wrest will help elevate your hands and make them more parallel to the keys, which may help with your finger reaching.
Check out some of these ideas:::

@arteteco
Depending on how you type, there might still be remedies- did the ones you tried in the past have wrist rests?

@arteteco
Looks nice for that type of keyboard :) nothing wrong with having different preferences! I don't think there's too much customization available for yours though :/

@arteteco
You can adjust the responsiveness and quietness of the keyboard by replacing the springs in the switches. Perhaps that might be something to consider? Or did you mean you preferred thin, more-compact keyboards?

I'm not a boomer myself- but from what I understand its original intent was to label a generation of people but has since then been transformed into an insult. That being noted, I would feel insulted if someone called me a boomer- not just because of the insulting implications, but also because I'm not so old as the originally referred 'boomers'.

It's a custom-built mechanical keyboard I assembled and programmed myself. You can buy parts to assemble your own mechanical keyboard in many places such as ebay/amazon, as well places like
https://1upkeyboards.com/
https://www.maxkeyboard.com/
and many other forums/websites.

The keyboard depicted is a %60 format(less keys than what you would normally find, which would likely be 100-120% formats). The keycaps are clear without any letters/markings and I added blue LED's to the clear Gateron switches. The PCB itself is highly customizable and has RGB underneath, capable of various LED modes and displays. I also added a couple of 'artesian' keycaps (the red lotus 'Esc' and 'Return' caps, and the flaked and g-prism).

Overall, this is my preferred aesthetic layout and I'm satisfied with it for the moment(this is my second board, by the way). My first board that I had assembled helped me hone skills I used to get my first full-IT job that ultimately allowed me to grow and explore other options later.

Projects like this are not only fun- but can potentially be very helpful in securing better work opportunities. Learning new things can be fun and also financially profitable.

As a former in smoker, I can say that although I would have preferred other methods- smoking was the most convenient way for me to deal with stress. I usually smoked on work breaks or while drinking. It helped take the edge off things and acted as a crutch for me to cope with things. I would recommend against it if possible- I only resorted to it because other immediate options were unsatisfactory for me at the time.
